The premise of the movie is pretty basic. Sandler's character, Michael Newman, is a middle-class guy trying to get a promotion at work. He wants to give his family a better life than he ever had, and sometimes that forces him to make difficult decisions between family life and work.
His family is his wife, Donna Newman (Kate Beckinsale), his daughter Samantha (Tatum McCann) and son, Ben (Joseph Castanon).
Michael is frustrated with his inability to please everyone.
Late one night, he watches a video as part of a work project he is desperately trying to finish. But he can't figure out how to work the remote and leaves to buy a universal remote control. Michael heads to Bed, Bath, and Beyond, where, after passing the "Bed" and "Bath" sections he stumbles upon the "Beyond" section of the store.
In the mysterious section, he is helped by Morty (Christopher Walken). Morty recognized that Michael is a nice guy who just needs a break and offers him a new remote, which will make his life easier. Michael soon discovers there is more to the remote than meets the eye.
What really makes this movie great is the smaller, supporting parts, such as Michael's boss, played by womanizing David Hasselhoff or Speedo sporting swim coach Sean Astin. Even the dog, Sundance, steals the spotlight in his obsession with a stuffed animal duck.
One of the funniest characters in the movie is the obnoxious boy who lives next door. Sandler shines in the childlike fights he has with the bratty kid.
This movie stands out above other Sandler flicks for one reason: It attempts to have a soul. You may even need a tissue box by the end of the film. For me, "Click" definitely, clicked.
