Summary: Formula "Sandler Comedy" -- Not among his best
Review: Adam Sandler in yet another "likable loser" role. This time around he wants to impress his on-again-off-again gilr friend by "adopting" his best pal's 5 year old son, who was "dropped" unannounced by the boy's dying mother.

There are some touching moments and good jokes, but all in all it's just a ripp-off from other Adam Sandler movies, which were all written by the comic. Various scenes focusing on "political correctness" are OVER-DONE, even for 21st century standards. This one is "cute", but no where near the clever and charming works like "The Wedding Singer" or "Billy Madison".***

Rating: 4 stars

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: very funny
Review: This is a very entertaining movie. The irresponsible Sonny Koufax tries to impress his girlfriend by "pretending" to adopt a little boy. The girlfriend isn't convinced, but Sonny starts to form a tight bond with the kid and ends up wanting to adopt him for real. I do admit that the humor in this movie did go a little too far at times. Like, Sonny DID set a pretty bad example to this 5-year-old boy. Watch the movie and you'll see what I mean. As an adult, you would think that Sonny should be a little more responsible...but there is hope, because Sonny later shapes things up and becomes a much better role model for the child. So, it is possible to argue that the humor in this film is a little wrong, but it does change. "Big Daddy" DOES have a story to tell and a good lesson to share. I think you will like it.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: ridiculous
Review: It is a "not right kind of fun" movie about setting an irresponsible model for a child, who actually was kidnapped. Let's start with the cover, urinating in public, tossing sticks at skaters in the park. I do not think this funny at all. It was silly and ridiculous making fun of someone who knows two languages (native and newly learned English) I mean the foreign pizza man. At the end this bad model get all what he needs: jobs, wife, family, revenge on ex-girl friend. Do not waste your time watching this ridiculous kind of fun, and completely irresponsible behavior to be taught to children. Actually it desrve minus rating.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Pretty Good
Review: The movie itself is really good. Its not the best movie but I still enjoyed it. Adam Sandler was a great actor in it. The little boy in the movie is so cute. The movie is really funny and is really sad. Really a VHS.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: SANDLER & SCHNEIDER ARE FUNNY
Review: Adam Sandler isnt very responsible at all and couldnt even look after a dog if he tried.So what does he do when a child ends up on his front door?
Say its yours.
With Sandler not knowing anything about parenting makes all the wrong mistakes such as teaching him to trip rollerbladers, pee on walls, and forget to give him baths,teaching wrestling monouvers, oh yeah also get him to be lost to pick up girls in the park.It is an all out fun fest.
Schneider has a little role as a delevery boy but he will make you laugh as he cant read.

Overall it is a very good romantic comedy movie and a must have.There are some priceless secnes in here and when has Adam Sandler and Rob Schneider ever upset us?I enjoyed this big hit and im shore you will too

HIGHLY RECOMENDED

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: my FAVOURITE movie
Review: This is my favourite of all-time. No joke. I love Adam Sandler movies, and this one is the best. It was so funny, and it had a really good storyline. Adam Sandler didn't have a stupid character in this movie like in some of his other ones (Waterboy, Billy Madison, LITTLE NICKY). The other cast members were funny too, especially Rob Schneider. Everything about this movie was good, and if you liked other Sandler movies your most likely to like this one. Also check out "The Wedding Singer", and "Happy Gilmore".

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Greatest Movie I've ever seen!
Review: This was the greatest movie I've ever seen. I am not a huge Adam Sandler fan, but I LOVED this movie!! I've seen it numerous times and would watch it 100 times more! It made me laugh and cry...you gotta see it!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Story?
Review: The kid was as cute as he could be. He worked well with Adam Sandler. The comedy was good, but the story was weak. But, it was still a good movie all the same.
