Review: Is it weird that I find Adam Sandler sexy? I love him! And he's sporting a beard in this movie! That's a plus! The Cobbler is not one of Adam Sandler's comedies, it's more of a fantasy drama with a comedic tone. While the movie wasn't particularly spectacular, it is quite interesting and definitely a memorable plot.
As for the acting, Adam Sandler's character was very dull, he did it very well. The girl (Carmen) annoyed me. Very likable character but maybe it's her face and her expressions that made me cringe. And also the way she flirts with Adam Sandler's character, I don't like it. *spoiler* Thank goodness they have no kissing scene. I was so happy to see Dascha Polanco in a movie. She plays Dayanara Diaz in Orange is the Black. And it's good to see Mags from Hunger Games Catching Fire speak. Hahaha.
The Cobbler is definitely a family movie.
Rating: ★★★★★★
