What about The Cobbler? That one was unexpectedly charming.

Click was SO GOOD.

But I'm still a little mad at the betrayal by the marketing, making it seem super silly and goofy, leaving my young self unprepared for an emotional gut-punch. Lol

It effectively did what it set out to do though, being a modern fable about where our priorities in life ultimately lead us. I think of it often, especially the way it portrays the trap of career-worship, and when I catch myself wishing time away.

That silly movie had so much heart it might have actually shaped my young worldview a bit. Lol

Movie was based.

I completely agree! Idk how Sandler was able to convey so much emotion in such a silly movie, but he did an outstanding job.
