Like watching Kramer vs Kramer while being lobotomized by a screaming monkey.

I've always held the belief that this was one of Sandler's legitimately good movies. I no longer hold that belief. It's no Wedding Singer. But maybe the Wedding Singer is no Wedding Singer. I'm almost afraid to go and re-watch that one now. Not that I was under any illusion in the first place that Big Daddy was a great movie (I had it rated three stars), but this was much worse than I remembered. It's funny how our memory doesn't change as our taste in movies matures, leading to traumatic re-watch events like this one. Well, maybe traumatic is going too far in this case, but you know what I mean.

Dude, this movie was my childhood.  Screw off, this is a friggin masterpiece and I don’t give a shit about what you say.

"Big Daddy" contains a lot of the over the top gross out slapstick that Adam Sandler comedies have become to be famous for, and you've seen it plenty of times before, but I was admittedly pretty swept up by its charm, as it's a lot more genuine and touching than you'd expect, and there are more than a dozen of big laughs throughout. You see every plot beat coming miles away, but its big heart got me quite a few times, and this is one of Sandler's better performances to date as well as perhaps his most touching. Tons of fun cameos throughout too.

This is Sandler’s most adult comedy.

Dylan and Cole were better than Sandler

4/10

I was doing Cubix Robots For Everyone: Race 'N Robots speedruns with this in the background. Some assuming moments but the rest was cringe humor and padding

My dad said he thinks Adam Sandler is funny and I almost shit myself.

A Hillarious Movie by Adam Sandler, yet again.
Here we get to see our lovely actor, ''pretend'' to be a dad, for this italian kid, that all of a sudden comes knocking on his door, claiming to be his son.

This was not half bad, I very much so enjoyed myself. There is of course a lot of dumb jokes and cringe here and there, but that is expected. The Steve Buscemi cameo scenes are hilarious, I always love to see him in Sandler flicks. The story is pretty shit, especially the awful court room drama plot point. The running gags however, are very awful great. The Hooter jokes, putting newspaper over everything and Buscemi wanting McDonald's. Not great, but it is one of those movies to watch when you want to disconnect your brain and watch something fun.

that was cute
