Big Daddy (1999)

Highly Overrated But Still Good

Clever, believable, and super fun to watch. It totally has replay value.

I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

I'm not a big, huge fan of Adam Sandler, but this was my first of all the films I'd seen with him in it. I avoided it while it was in theaters that summer and heard a lot of bad things about it, but I rented it that fall and to my surprise it was entertaining. It's not only funny; it's also touching and very interesting as we see Mr. Sandler go from lazybones to model citizen. Well, maybe not model citizen, but at least he compensates through the movie. I won't say how for those of you who still haven't seen it. But if you want a good comedy and haven't seen an Adam Sandler film, start here!

It was a great movie the best part was probably when Sonny goes back to Hooters and finds his old girlfriend their on her "5 year plan". My favorite character would probably have to be the homeless guy because he will do anything for food and he is vary funny. His best part was probably when he was " roller skating" in his trolley. another funny constant thing in the movie was when sonny would call Corinne HOOTERS HOOTERS HOOTERS.

This is such a sweet movie to me! I love it so much and I love the chemistry between Adam Sandler and this kid! I cannot believe this kid is Dylan and Cole Sprouse! That is crazy! I love Suite Life Of Zack and Cody! Anyways, this movie is a favorite of mine. Adam has such heart for this child, obviously not at first but over time he grew to love the kid. I love seeing their relationship grow and it is such a sweet story. Dylan and Cole Sprouse are so good in this movie as well. They are so cute, likable and you really feel for him and you want him to go with Sunny. I will always love this movie and this movie will never get old to me. This is one of Adam's best performances in my opinion and I wish he would make more simple and funny stories like this one. Adam Sandler is one of my favorite comedians ever!

Big Daddy was released during he summer of June 1999, and it was Adam Sandler's most successful and biggest box office worldwide hit for many years (until Grown Ups in 2010). Sandler plays his typical characters that he has played so well over the yeas and here he is very similar yet plays it well that it connects well enough with the story,and the flow is great. Big Daddy is construct in which, as ever, the world is that safe, hurling logs in the path of speeding roller-bladers is satisfyingly amusing, while the American legal and social services systems seem to operate on a chaotically arbitrary and scarily trusting basis. Though the film manages to be quite consistently funny, with each juvenile gag balanced by the odd spark of wit and outrageousness, although a courtroom finale allowing Sandler and his writers to get their father-son relationship themes out of their systems, is predictably and excruciatingly over the top. The film manages to blend comedy and drama well, and the conclusion and several final scenes who that the writers were able to make the viewers have several touching moments.
