Bedtime Stories Cinema Review



Adam Sandler and Disney join forces and make an unusual team to bring us this fabulous family film Bedtime Stories about…well…bedtime stories.

Hotel handyman Skeeter Bronson (Sandler) is left in charge of his niece and nephew while his sister Wendy (Courtney Cox) is out of town for a job interview. In an attempt to bond with the children, Skeeter gets into the routine of telling them stories every night before bed, just like his Dad used to do when he was a kid.

Skeeter soon realises that when his niece and nephew add their own twists to the stories, something magical happens and the tales come true the next day. Skeeter tries desperately to manoeuvre the stories so they come true and fulfil his dreams but, it doesn’t always quite work out that way.

Bedtime Stories is a great, fun film with lots of comedy throughout. Skeeter and his friend and colleague Mickey (Russell Brand) are great characters and bring plenty of laughs to the plot but, perhaps it is Bugsy the very cute, if a little strange, guinea pig who steals the show.

Bedtime Stories is a must see film this winter and is great for some light entertainment Disney and Sandler style.
