5 The movie is being sold as a comedy, but you know what? This isn't funny.

4 ...a crass mixture of groin-kicking and tear-jerking...
E!
6 ...the gross out jokes won't leave a bad taste in the mouth; the gushy life lessons will.

3 Eventually, Click morphs into a painfully morose version of It's a Wonderful Life...

4 Rarely have I wanted to fast-forward through a movie as much as Click...

5 An uneasy mix of frat-boy yocks and Twilight Zone-style science-fiction...

5 ...frequently the humor either falls flat or is just plain stupid...

3 Before it devolves into a misbegotten version of It's a Wonderful Life by way of Bicentennial Man, the film indulges in plenty of puerile remote-related bits...

3 Can no one save the talented Sandler from himself? I hate this movie. Click. I hate this movie. Click. I hate this movie. Click.

5 Sandlerites are invited to discuss, at length, the appeal of the star's ode to arrested development, while I marvel that, once again, the doofus is rewarded with a woman of unfurrowed beauty and saintly patience.

4 It's the kind of potty-mouthed movie that's one expletive shy of an R.

6 De rigueur hypocritical as it may be coming from Hollywood, Click is a cultural critique, with the dull blade and impact of a battle-ax.
Onion AV Club
Scott Tobias
5 Outside of a running joke about Sandler's dog humping a giant stuffed animal and the usual anger/pain humor that runs through his work, the film devotes most of its energy to a drearily sentimental lesson about what's really important.
Maxim

4 The beginning has some good laughs, but once you get past the gimmick, there's nothing but failed gross-out humor and heavy-handed sentimental slop.
Premiere

3 ...feels like nothing more than hitting rewind and play on a stale plot and jokes you've seen 100 times before.
Christian Science Monitor
Stephen Humphries
8 ...inventive and even emotional - a far cry from Billy Madison and Happy Gilmore.
