“Bedtime Stories” is fun for kids and adults, a good family fun film with a good story that stirs the imagination for kids.
Sandler and company roll out his first PG rated movie… a fun one for the family that has all the stories he tells his niece and nephew coming true… the stories also feature the actors in the movie as various characters. 
Adam Sandler plays Skeeter, a guy who grew up in a small hotel run by his father, a hotel later turned into a megahotel when the father can no longer keep the business successful.
Skeeter’s father is an inspiring storyteller for his son, weaving one bedtime story after another… and as Skeeter watches his niece and nephew for a week, he tries to do the same.
His stories are fun and exciting, but he puts himself in as the hero… with the supporting cast of the movie as the supporting characters in the stories.
Skeeter dials up the stories to improve his personal life when he realizes that parts of the stories he tells end up coming true.
THE BOTTOM LINE: The kids will like it, adults can enjoy it too, its not perfect, its a little predictable, but its good for what it is meant to be: a family movie… I give it 7.0 out of 10.
