Summary: Disturbing
Review: Who's idea was this? This movie is almost as bad as the Wedding Singer. The idea of Adam Sandler being a father at all, never mind a good father, is extremely absurd. Adam Sandler would probably show the same parenting skills in real life as he did in the first half of the movie. I wouldn't approve of a kid having a big neon sign in his room that says "LIVE NUDES", especially one at that age. I wouldn't want my kid to trip rollerbladers that go really fast. It would be funny, but I wouldn't want my kid dripping spit out of his mouth and slurping it back up. And I especially would NEVER allow him to become the smelly kid in school...that is just disgusting; every kid needs to take a bath, because even Adam Sandler himself wouldn't want to smell that kid every day, and each day, it gets worse and worse until you have to get him into a headlock to take a bath, but you're hesitant to do it because he hasn't bathed in three months and you don't want to smell yourself. All this movie shows is poor parenting skills, and absurd jokes about Hooters and "old balls" in front of five year olds. Even though the idea is interesting, it just isn't funny. If you want something good from Adam Sandler, look for Happy Gilmore.

Summary: Whos ur daddy?!?
Review: This is so coo! It's about an unresponsible 32 yr old played by Adam Sandler who wants to prove to his ex that dumped him for an older responsible man that he is ready to grow up. So, he adopts a 5 yr old boy Julian played by the adorable twins Cole and Dylan Sprouse. It's a great funny movie!

Summary: I was pretty disappointed.
Review: You'd think that with a superstar like Adam Sandler, "Big Daddy" would be really good. Unfortunately, it's not. "Big Daddy" has it's moments, but not enough to save it. Even Adam Sandler himself can't save it. When I saw it advertised on TV, I liked the idea because it looked and sounded funny. And you'd expect it to be. I mean, Adam Sandler's characters are nearly always silly, childish and immature and you can just imagine him trying to take on the responibilities of caring for a little kid. You just can't help but laugh. However "laugh" is what I didn't do as much as I expected to when I saw "Big Daddy".

Summary: No one over the age of 13 should watch this movie!
Review: Many people, mainly Adam Sandler and his few friends, thought that this movie was funny - it isn't. Look Who's Talking is funny, Three Men & Baby is funny, more recently Ace Ventura and The Mask are funny, but this isn't. All the best bits, which everyone's seen in the trailer, seem long winded and drawn out in this movie. Big Daddy Small Laughs I'm afraid. Sure kids will love it, anyone under the age of 13 will laugh at Sandler's goofy face, it's just all-round hilarious kids movies have been made before and are at the cinemas now, don't waste your money or time with a half-witted video that your kids will grow out of in less then a week. Trust me, they would like Ace Ventura, Bugs Life or Chicken Run better than this pile of Adam Sandler.

Summary: generally likable comedy
Review: It's hard not to like "Big Daddy", though diehard fans of Adam Sandler may well cringe at this further step in the sentimentalization of the comic actor. For although this film has raised the hackles of a number of overly sensitive worrywarts for its seeming endorsement of permissive parenting, the film is, in reality, far more soft-hearted than hard-edged. Actually, this seems to be, probably, the wisest direction for Sandler to go in at the moment because, as an actor, he conveys an aura of genuine likability that fits well with his Average Joe persona. "Big Daddy" might have been a better film if it had not given in so easily to sentimentality and predictable emotional uplift, but Sandler's deadpan portrayal of an immature adult forced to grow up into responsibility-laden fatherhood makes the film relatively enjoyable. Sandler portrays a 30-something loser living in South Manhattan, who has been milking a minor foot injury to the tune of a $200,000 court settlement and whose life, consequently, consists of miniscule employment, a general lack of direction, and a girlfriend who's ready to move on to an older man with a "5-year plan". When a little boy suddenly shows up on his doorstep (the hitherto unknown son of a friend of his), Sandler decides to temporarily take him under his wing in the hopes of winning his girlfriend back. Thus, a man with almost no resources of adult maturity attempts to instill skewed life lessons into a willing, highly impressionable young mind. This leads to Sandler's teaching the boy to indulge in predictable, but surprisingly timid, antisocial behavior such as urinating on public buildings, staying up late, tripping unsuspecting rollerbladers etc. The film is not always at its peak of creative freshness at such times, but Sandler's lowkey cynicism provides some humor. As Sandler grows to care for his tot and the inevitable forces array themselves against him to take the child away, the film veers off in the direction of sappiness and maudlin tearjerking. One may be moved at times, but one also craves the satirical sharpness and bite that a more courageous screenplay might have provided. The movie does display an enlightened view of gays (though Hollywood has yet to get past the point where gay characters can do more than merely twinkle at each other), but it loses points for its rather nasty tone towards old people. Still, any film designed to send Dr. Laura into spasms of psychoanalytical outrage should be respected and honored. Overall, "Big Daddy" is a movie that, if it had taken more audacious pathways, might have been a firstrate comedy. As it is, it provides numerous chuckles and a cuddly warm feeling - and that, given the state of much of big screen comedy these days, is about all we dare allow ourselves to expect.

Summary: I couldn't stop laughing!
Review: I think "Big Daddy" is a great movie. Adam Sandler is hilarious as usual - my favorite part is when he mops up the kid's messes with newspapers. He just cracks me up! And whoever plays Julian is just adorable. Of course, being an education major, I think every kid is adorable. This is a good movie to watch any old time. The story is easy to follow - Adam Sandler plays Sonny Koufax, a law school grad. looking for the easy way out to life. His girlfriend tells him if he doesn't shape up she'll leave him. He adopts this kid who shows up at his door (really the product of a one-night stand of his roomate's). The instances that follow are hilarious! I especially like the "hooters" girl Sonny always makes fun of. There is some great acting in this movie, esp. by Sandler. If you're looking for a laugh, rent this movie!

Summary: A pretty good flick!
Review: Adam Sandler is one hilarious actor, & this is no exception. The movie is really great, & worthwhile, too. In certain areas', it can get sort of repetitive, but nonetheless, very funny. I do recommend this, although not that appropriate too children under 8. My friend also saw this movie, said that it was repetitive, dull, and very steryotipical. She applauded it, though, for at least having homosexuals in it, and not making fun of them. But my friend dissapproved of the little child cursing. I decided that I would offer any readers two very different thoughts, to give more variety.
