Adam Sandler fans have hailed the 2006 comedy fantasy film 'Click' as one of the actor's most underrated movies, urging Netflix viewers to watch it following the release of 'Happy Gilmore 2'. The sequel to the 1996 golf comedy dropped on Netflix on July 25, reigniting interest in Sandler's filmography.
In a Reddit thread titled 'Best Adam Sandler movies!!!', one user asked for recommendations to watch before the sequel. Many commenters highlighted 'Click', which stars Sandler as Michael Newman, a workaholic who receives a universal remote control from a mysterious inventor, played by Christopher Walken. The remote allows him to control time, but it soon begins to skip important life moments against his will.
Despite receiving mixed reviews from critics, 'Click' earned an Academy Award nomination for Best Makeup and Hairstyling for its time-jumping transformations. Fans praised the film for its emotional depth, with one commenter noting, 'Click is such a fun and enjoyable movie that leaves you sobbing like a baby after it's over.'
Other Sandler films recommended in the thread include 'Uncut Gems', '50 First Dates', and 'The Wedding Singer'. 'Uncut Gems', a 2019 crime thriller, was described as 'a masterpiece of paranoia and anxiety' by one fan, while others praised Sandler's dramatic performance.
'Click' is available to stream on Netflix alongside many of Sandler's other comedies.
