  I have not liked many of Adam Sandlres latest movies but this one well, i did. I laughed, thought it was funny cute, not bad at all. Was expecting a really bad movie but instead got a nice little family film that me and my daughter enjoyed.

  Well I was expecting or hoping for a witty, sarcastic Sandler film but alas as it turns out this IS actually for kids. Its very tame, very silly and childish...its for kids haha Nothing wrong with the film atall, a nice gentle story with fantasy elements and nice visual effects, kids will enjoy it im sure. Apart from some very nice looking girls there isnt too much for the adults. Russell Brand makes his film debut (I'm guessing) here, I was horrified to see him but there you go, he wasn't too bad actually, shows he can be a normal person instead of a prat. Take the family.

  Very sweet and funny movie. Adam has to babysit his niece and nephew. He reads them bedtime stories which come true, so he tries to get them to tell stories that will help him in real life, such as getting the girl and the job at the hotel that he was promised. Full of fun - castles,… More
  Very sweet and funny movie. Adam has to babysit his niece and nephew. He reads them bedtime stories which come true, so he tries to get them to tell stories that will help him in real life, such as getting the girl and the job at the hotel that he was promised. Full of fun - castles, cowboys, gladiators, aliens and mermaids. Good cast.

  The movie's premise is more interesting than the movie itself. It's a bit too kid friendly to be classed as a family movie and essentialy its another unfunny Adam Sandler flick.

• Alexander D

  
  This was okay, but not great.

• Jim C

  
  I think I finally can admit that I hate Adam Sandler, he is just ot funny aymore, hell, when washe really funny.

• Cassie H

  
  A delightful & magical family movie that is very enjoyable. My mom even liked this :) Adam Sandler is definitely changing my opinions about how I thought about him. Russell Brand was hilarious as well :) A great movie for anyone of any age group :) I <3 it :)

  Family-friendly "Bedtime Stories" hinges on the talents of two Adams: Sandler and Shankman. Both Adams have confounding success in Hollywood. Sandler's box office track record is impeccable - his name above the marquee of a comedy practically guarantees $100 million gross and "Stories" was no exception. Shankman is not only a highly respected choreographer, but as a director of 7 wide releases, he averages a not so shabby $90 million gross for his films. What they both have in common is that their films almost certainly will get skewered by critics, but viewed by audiences. "Bedtime Stories" is no exception. An underambitious, underachieving mess the film should have probably been a huge bomb but instead managed to eke out $110 million domestically and an additional $102 million worldwide. "Stories" has a not so original, but potentially interesting premise-Hotel handyman (Sandler) tells his niece and nephew a Bedtime story that become true in real life. But "Stories" is so by-the-numbers and haphazardly put together that it loses any capacity to be entertaining beyond basic expectations. Sandler does his usual adult-child schtick that has served him well and in "Stories" it works. You can't help but chuckle at some of his jokes, especially the ones directed at Lucy Lawless. And Shankman, well, he directs the films with very little abandon. Like most of his films, there's a blandness to the construction of his scenes, a predictability to the situations, a cheapness to the special effects and makeup that it sadly proves the point that you don't have to be a talented director to direct a Hollywood hit, you just have to be savvy enough to add those Hollywood ingredients: a mismatched couple who fall in love despite initially hating each other (Sandler and the uncomfortable Keri Russell), a odd sidekick with a way of landing thunderous one liners (an out-of-place Russell Brand) and a self-indulgent Afterschool Special- lesson to be learned (self-belief will get you everything you wish).

  hardly any funny scenes, it sucked. C-

• Leigh R

  
  Not very memorable. I watched it and semi-liked it, but really couldn't share much about it.

• Dead A

  
  Nice :)

• KJ P

  
  I thought I would laugh! However, apparently, the makers signed on with disney to make the film purposely unlaughable! (understatement)

• jay n

  
  Harmless Disney feature, silly but okay.

• Nicki M

  
  Wasn't as bad as I expected, but predictably enough, the fantasy sequences grated on me. I'm just so not into this kidsy fantasy crap. Aside from that, not too bad, and probably something a whole family could sit down and watch without too much pain.

• Michael S

  
  Very entertaining and charming family film. I thought it would suck, but was pleasantly surprised!

• Megan S

  
  From the previews I was afraid that the hamster was going to be too over the top and ridiculous but it wasn't that bad. I love Adam Sandler and I want it to rain gumballs!

  When Sandler first started doing movies, I celebrated his entire collection. Billy Madison and Happy Gilmore, hell, even Big Daddy are movies I can put it at any time and have a good time with. Then he started making money and that's when shit went down hill. Don't get me wrong, he has made some good choices (Punch Drunk Love), but all and all, his movies have become terrible as of late. Take this movie for instance, where I had to watch Adam Sandler do the worst Adam Sandler impression I have ever seen. And the set up that makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. Either way, the reason I can't just blast this one out of the water is that there were a few times where I genuinely laughed (Rob Schnieder's bit as Tonto is pretty funny) and I am amazed at all the great actors Sandler is able to pull these days. Guy Pearce is slumming it up at full tilt in this film, but he does it with style.

  Impressive enchanting family comedy about making up bedtime stories which come to life. Adam Sandler and Russell Brand are so hilarious in the tradition of <i>Enchanted</i>. I like the final scene of Sandler and Keri Russell riding on the motorcycle to save the primary school in the few minutes before it'll blow out.
