Hoffman 2001 Big Daddy

...Big Daddy. Yet another Adam Sandler film, or well worth a watch? *********************History********************* Adam Sandler was born in 1966, making him much older than I'd realised, I'd say he tends to look mid-thirties in his newer films.

He adopts the kid to show responsability to a future-minded girlfriend. (played by Kirsty Swanson) as he trys to show his nesting instincts. This is a true comdy film.
