Click 4K Blu-ray Movie Review

Where's that fast-forward button?

Reviewed by Randy Miller III June 16, 2026

One of several collaborations between director Frank Coraci and actor Adam Sandler (whose only arguably decent one was their very first, 1998's The Wedding Singer), the supernatural comedy Click was greenlit after the huge success of Tom Shadyac's Bruce Almighty and arrived in 2006, making this year its 20th anniversary. Though Click sold plenty of tickets, it wasn't particularly well-reviewed and it's not hard to see why: despite its broadly appealing premise (a man discovers a literal "universal remote" that lets him control his life), the poorly-executed end result makes it one of the least impressive films in Sandler's notoriously rough filmography. It's also the only one to earn an Oscar nomination (for Best Makeup), believe it or not, though it lost to the arguably more deserving Pan's Labyrinth.

For a synopsis and roast of Click, please see Martin Liebman's review of Sony's 2006 Blu-ray, an early format release that doubled as the studio's first 50GB disc. Marty's seemingly harsh 1.5/5 rating for this film -- slightly lower than my still-dismal 2/5 -- is warranted, though: Click is a mostly terrible endeavor overall, wasting a lot of its good will on an unworthy main character and seriously bogged down by the partnership's reliance on gross-out humor and throwaway gags, as well as over-the-top dramatics that never feel fully earned. (The third-act tonal shift into ultra-serious mode probably would've worked out better if Click starred almost anyone else, as the end result didn't move me one bit.) I tried to put it out of my mind back in "the aughts" but Sony's new 4K UHD re-release, though obviously beneficial for fans, didn't boost my opinion of the main feature despite its leaps forward in audio and video quality.

NOTE: These screenshots are sourced from 1080p/SDR film clips seen during this disc's bonus features. While they should obviously not be considered a truly accurate representation of 4K picture quality, they're closer in appearance than what you'd get from downscaled 2160p/HDR images.

Click maintains Sony's strong visual track record for catalog upgrades, easily advancing upon the earlier Blu-ray's 1080p/SDR transfer with a full-strength 2160p/HDR10/Dolby Vision effort that, regardless of your opinion of the film itself, looks like a million bucks. The cinematography by still-working veteran Dean Semler -- whose career began in 1974 and has undergone a whiplash-inducing number of highs and lows -- is crisply rendered, and the film's admittedly impressive special effects still blend in well. Fine detail is through the roof in favorable lighting conditions, with strong textures on costumes and characters alike, while black levels are deep and rich with no signs of crush, banding, or other compression-related artifacts. This is no surprise given that Click and its extras are given an entire triple-layer (100GB) disc, allowing for a high and supportive bit rate from start to finish. As with the other Sony catalog upgrades that I've covered in recent months, this is a very solid upgrade that fans will appreciate having.

I honestly wasn't expecting a full-on Dolby Atmos remix here, but that's exactly what we get as Click's default audio option. (Purists will also be happy to know that the more theatrically accurate DTS-HD 5.1 Master Audio mix returns as a secondary track.) While most comedies typically aren't very sonically demanding, Click's supernatural/sci-fi elements are an exception when Michael Newman (Sandler) and Morty (Christopher Walken) enter the universal remote's swirling interface, while related moments likewise tend to carry a more heightened sense of surround activity aided by swirling discrete effects. A handful of everyday scenes are also amplified by format's unique "sonic bubble", such as an early fireworks display and a handful of sequences where music drifts around the background. Admittedly, the bulk of Click stays in familiar genre territory with crisp dialogue and a decidedly more unchallenging, front-forward atmosphere, but the moments where it comes more fully alive make this new Dolby Atmos remix a worthwhile upgrade.

Although I don't have Sony's 2006 Blu-ray handy for a direct comparison, I wouldn't be surprised if this newer disc's secondary lossless 5.1 track offered subtle sonic gains over the earlier one. In any case, both excellent options are here for your enjoyment and this basically always translates to an easy 5/5 rating in my book.

Click 4K Blu-ray Movie, Overall Score and Recommendation 

Frank Coraci's Click finds the director re-teaming with Adam Sandler in a supernatural comedy that was obviously inspired by the then-recent success of Bruce Almighty. It also clearly wants to mimic the dramatics of films like It's a Wonderful Life but comes off closer to The Family Man piled high with loads of gross-out humor and strange detours, resulting in a uniquely unimpressive black mark on both of their patchy filmographies. Nonetheless, Click was wildly popular back in 2006 and Sony is celebrating its 20th anniversary with a brand new 4K UHD, offering tangible A/V upgrades and bringing back all of the old Blu-ray's bonus features. Recommended to fans only.
