A LAUGH A MINUTE from The dad we all wished we had

Advantages: Fun for all the family, Comic genius of Adam Sandler, Funny & touching storyline
Disadvantages: You will need to change your pants because u will wet them

Purchased on video from HMV £6.99 Sutible for all the family! Possibly one of the funniest film ever!!!! I have now watched this film well over 50 times (yes seriously) from various repeats on tv etc. I know every single word but it never fails to put a smile on my face. This is a classic Adam Sandler film and story line , if you know any of his films you will know he uses mainly the same cast in his films and it doesnt get boring. This is a typically ...
...it his late 20's with no prospects in life and no plans to change his exsitance in the planet of sleeping in till 2pm every day waking up and drinking beer all night whilst watching footie ( you know the kinda life my partner would live if i let him get away with it) One day a 5 year old boy (Julian) gets dumped on him and he has to look after him for a few weeks.

one of my first DVDs

Advantages: funny
Disadvantages: weak story

The first time I had seen this movie was on DVD. I had seen the Wedding Singer and the Waterboy and I had seen many sketches of Adam Sabdler on Saturday night live. I watched this with an open mind... And ir was worth it. Ok, so the story is stupid but it is kind of hartwarming in a childish dort of ways and afterall, the movie is a comedy and pulls it off quite well. The special features are the normal standard with the music videos etc but they ...

A funny film but a little cheesy

Advantages: It has it's funny moments
Disadvantages: it is too cheesy

Big Daddy is a film about a young lazy man (Adam Sandler) who ends up looking after a small boy and ends up loving him like his own son. The film is quite funny as Adam Sandler lets the child do whatever he likes. However the film is cheesy and very predictable, but the ending is slightly different to what usually happens in the these type of films. The acting is nothing special but it's not bad and the story line is pretty average comparied to these ...

Big daddy

Advantages: none
Disadvantages: Adam Sandler

...any worse but after watching big daddy I was proved wrong. Bid Daddy is about Sonny Koufax (Sandler) adopting a five year old boy so he can prove to his girlfriend that he is accepting resposibility and finally growing up. The jokes are awful and after half an hour you want to strangle the five year old boy, do not watch this movie if you want to keep your sanity. ...

Much better than expected

Advantages: Very funny, true to life
Disadvantages: Sometimes too american

Big Daddy was a film that I thought was really going to lack in quality. It sounded boring and rather run of the mill. But as soon as I watched the movie, my mind changed entirely. It is a really funny film, much better than I had expected, and in more ways than one. The acting is good, the storyline is really good, full of twists and always amusing, and the story is really great and uplifting. I think that the story is really true and is very ...

big daddy indeed

Advantages: it will make you laugh
Disadvantages: if you arent a big Adam Sandler fan, it may throw you off

...While I am not a big fan of Adam Sandler, I thought the movie portrayed a general side of human life. While Adam refused to grow up himself and teach the child to grow into a responsible adult, Adam lets his inner child out also. He also realizes that the child is more that just an object to use. the movie was indeed comedy and funny but injected a deeper meaning of life, love, relationships and the child in all of us. The child that played the ...

A great Movie

Advantages: Great Film, first class for everyone
Disadvantages: none what so ever

I bought Big Daddy becuase I felt it is potentially one the great happy yet sad movies. If you like films where the good guy wins, go and there and seize the day buy Big Daddy on DVD or video and watch it over and over. I thought this was going to be a girly movie, but I was suprised I rented it on the Sunday and bought it on the Monday. Money well spent especially the money on the Tissues. I love it when films are written about a hopeless charachter ...

Big Daddy, Big Laughs

Advantages: Lots of slapstick type gags
Disadvantages: Obvious storyline

His girlfriend (played by Kirstie Swanson of Buffy fame) thinks he needs to become more responsible or she's going to leave him. Low and behold this kid turns up on his door step one day who actual belongs to a housemate but Sandler decides to adopt him to show how responsible he is. His girlfriend still leaves him ...

classic

Advantages: funny
Disadvantages: none

Big daddy is not, as some of you may have expected, a bi opic of the great wrestler who died a couple of years ago. But it is a very funny comedy staring Adam sandler. Adam sandler has become somewhat of a comic hero of mine, with films like the water boy, this and little nicky. The scene is, Adam sandlers character sonny is a layabout who hasn’t got a proper job, his girlfriend is gonna leave him unless he grows up, so he thinks the best way ...
...is Julian and turns out to be a real good laugh. Lots of antics and memorable scenes with sonny and Julian who changes his name to Frankenstein during the film, the two are inseparable, until the law steps in, and a custody battle ensues, eventually all works out for the best though and everyone lives happily ever after. ...

Fav film

Advantages: it has good actors and actresses
Disadvantages: it doesnt really have special effects

This film is excellent. The storyline is very good but what tops it off is just the actors. They are great, they make it so hilarious. Adam Sandler is in it and I love him. In this film he gets stuck with a kid who arrives at his door surprisingly and they end up having an fun time together. This film is definetely a comedy movie. This is a very old film, it was made in 1999 but this is an unforgettable film. It is a good classic. The special effects ...
...special effects. This film is quite different to other normal films, it is better! It is not a rip off, it is completely worth it. Also starring dylan and cole sprouse playing 'frankenstein'. they have their own show now called the suite life on deck. I recommend this to people because it is funny and interesting! ...

Wedding Singer adopts a kid...

Advantages:
Disadvantages:

This film is about Sonny (Adam Sandler), a thirty-year-old man whose girlfriend dumps him for an older man. Sonny is determined to prove that contrary to what his ex thinks, he can be responsible. To do this, he decides to adopt five-year-old, Julian. This leads to all kinds of madness and there are plenty of humourous scenes. The story is also very touching as it shows how the relationship with Sonny and Julian develops. The plot is fairly predictable ...

Excellent Comedy

Advantages: Really funny and has a heart warming storyline
Disadvantages: Storyline can lose reality

Yet another great film starring the amazingly funny actor Adam Sandler! The basic storyline is about a young boy who all of a sudden appears on the doorstep of the character(sorry I can't remember his name-but the actor is Adam Sandler) and he has to look after the child, as the kid has basically been abandoned. After wanting to leave the kid at the start, Adam Sandler soon becomes attached to the child and doesn't want to leave him. An incredibly ...

I don't often go in for comedy but....

Advantages: Gets you on different levels
Disadvantages: A predictible outcome.

having just been forced to watch this by numerous friends I was plesently surprised. This is a film about a guy who's a bit of a waster. Having been to law school and not been bothered to find a job yet he find himself surrounded by people with proper jobs. His girlfriend Vanessa is getting fed up and goes away for a couple of days to 'think things over'. Whilst she's gone a 5 year old child ends up on his doorstep belonging to a friend of his who ...
...trip. Not wanting his friend to cancel such an important trip Sonny decides to impersonate his friend and take on the child himself in order to impress Vanesssa with his maturity, with hilarious and touching consequences. I found this film funny and yet it touched a part of me which felt sympathy for Sonny and the child in the series of events that follows. However, as in all such films it has a sickeningly happy ending which I usually disagree with ...

don't drink to much before this movie

Advantages: Unbearably funny, and full of cuteness
Disadvantages: can't think of any!

This is a fantastic film. It is everything you would expect form Adam Sandler, so if you have seen the any of his other films and enjoyed them, this is for you. I warn you though, don't have to much to drink before watching this becuae it will have you peeing yourself with laughter! Adam Sandler is great as usual, with perfect comedy timing, but the little boy playing his "son" is adorable, he would melt anyones heart!He plays well with Sandler ...
