Description of Big Daddy:
Gosh--kids. You gotta love 'em, right? Well, not necessarily-- particularly if you're Adam Sandler. But Big Daddy is about paternal devotion in its own oblique way. Sandler plays Sonny Koufax, a law-school grad who has been milking an accident settlement to cover his living expenses, while he continues to slack his way through life. But when his girlfriend threatens to dump him, he decides to show her he's serious about their relationship and pretends to adopt a little boy (in fact, his roommate's son from a one-night stand several years earlier, who shows up on their doorstep just after the roommate leaves town on a job). But after taking care of the tyke for a couple of days, Sonny finds that it's a little like feeding that stray dog that followed you home: Before you know it, you've grown attached to the little fella--and then what are you going to do? By turns crude and maudlin, Big Daddy has its share of laughs and will certainly entertain fans who like Adam Sandler best when he plays the case of arrested development with a smart-aleck retort for everything. --Marshall Fine
Big Daddy Reviews:
my favorite movie! 
2009-10-27 - my parents got 5-6 copies of this movie because its my dad and I's favorite. I HAD to get a copy for myself! its my alltime fave! I LOVE adam sandler and the twin boys do a great job!
love adam.
2009-09-12 - adam sandler is the funniest man on this earth. he can do a movie on anything with any other cast and the movie is always a success.
. . . It was okay 
2009-09-05 - It wasn't bad. It wasn't good either. I was just mediocre. Some of the jokes fell flat, and some others didn't. The gay jokes were too overwhelming, while the kid jokes were spot on. Sandler, Schneider, Buscemi, and others really did a good job with their performances. Even though I can't stand the Sprouse brothers, they did very well as Julian. So yes, Big Daddy was just okay, not good nor bad. It's not as strong and downright hilarious as Sandler's other films like The Waterboy and Billy Madison, so don't count on a laugh-out-loud experience here.
Grade: C
Big Daddy
2009-08-04 - This is a funny comedy about Adam Sandler taking care of a kid that ends up in his front door. Adam Sandler tries to be a father figure to the kid and eventually adopts him. Worth watching over and over again.
