cianpolzin It was a great movie the best part was probably when Sonny goes back to Hooters and finds his old girlfriend their on her "5 year plan". My favorite character would probably have to be the homeless guy because he will do anything for food and he is vary funny. His best part was probably when he was " roller skating" in his trolley. another funny constant thing in the movie was when sonny would call Corinne HOOTERS HOOTERS HOOTERS.

trooper5783 I like Adam Sandler a lot, but recently with Blended and The Cobbler, he's starting to lose his goofy touch what made his humor funny in the first place. I loved the most recent movie he's done called Pixels in 3D, but he truly shined back in the day. One of his best movies is Big Daddy, which is a very funny and surprisingly charming comedy that shows that Adam Sandler can still try his best at being hilarious. The movie has a strength of having pee and throw up jokes, innuendoes and slapstick, but the crudeness and simplicity of the comedy will make you laugh out loud. The movie is very sweet, without being too corny to be considered cinematic cheese. A lot of the unimportant characters are actually the funniest and most interesting of the bunch. Julian is just too damn funny here, he has a ton of antics that are a few of the highlights of the movie. Overall, Big Daddy is a hilarious and heartfelt gem that should be better received.

powermandan Big Daddy was made around the time that Adam Sandler was evolving. Having just finished The Waterboy and The Wedding Singer, Sandler is back to his old self. Luckily, his material was new and fresh, so he was not very hated.The character of Sonny Kofax early on in the film is pretty much Adam Sandler playing Adam Sandler. He is a 32-year-old law school grad who works one day a week as a toll-booth ticket- taker. The rest of the time, he lazes out buying worthless junk and lives off a successful lawsuit filed two years earlier. This first little bit is typical Sandler. But there's no fart jokes which make it more of a cute kind of funny. When his roommate (Stewart) is out of town, a child named Julian (Sprouse) drops by with a note claiming to be his. He lies to social services saying he is his roommate and adopts him, hoping it will show responsibility and maturity. When his girlfriend (Swanson) dumps him for a much older man, Sonny tries to take the kid back. When he grows to love him, he tries to fight to keep him. So we get regular Sandler progressing to a more mature version of himself. Yes, there is silly toilet humour, but nothing that crosses the line of stupid and unfunny. When he adopts Julian, it is funny to see someone irresponsible like Adam Sandler caring for a 5-year-old. He has no idea what to do. This day in age, young parents are the norm. Teens always get pregnant. Since they are still kids themselves and not fully mature, they have tough times raising their own. Big Daddy kind of reflects that: he is immature and adopts a child. But the responsibility that he takes on makes him wake up and smell the coffee. He must discipline him as well as give him freedom. Of course it is hard to get the hang of, but that is all part of parenthood and Adam Sandler adds humour to that in all the right spots. Because he got a dose of reality, his love life strengthens when he falls for Layla Maloney (Adams) and finally becomes a successful lawyer by the end. Big Daddy offers us truly funny and clever Adam Sandler humour, along with a beautiful glimpse at fatherhood.

BA_Harrison Irresponsible slacker Sonny Koufax (Adam Sandler) begrudgingly 'adopts' his best pal's son Julian (played by twins Cole and Dylan Sprouse), teaching the kid how to act as irresponsibly as he does. Inevitably, Sonny realises his mistake and rectifies the problem, but is eventually rumbled by the social service, who want to put Julian in care. Faced with losing the little guy forever, the layabout smartens up his act, hits the law books and prepares for court, determined to win Julian back.A massive dollop of schmaltzy Hollywood cheeze designed to tug at the heartstrings but leave a big smile on the face, Big Daddy is extremely formulaic stuff that simply lets Sandler do his thing: be a likable loser who learns a valuable life lesson and changes his ways for the better, all the while delivering crass gags about urinating in public and women with big boobs (Leslie Mann and Kristy Swanson bearing the brunt of many a Hooters joke). If Sandler's name in the credits doesn't make you want to turn off instantly, then this should prove a reasonably fun way to waste your time—just don't go expecting too much from it.
