Cobbler, The

Comedy, Drama, Fantasy

A cobbler, bored of his everyday life, stumbles upon a magical heirloom that allows him to become other people and see the world in a different way.


The critical consensus

Uneven comic fantasy from Thomas McCarthy, with Adam Sandler.

**(*)(*)(*)Eddie Harrison, The List, 27/07/2015

This entirely dreadful yarn about a magical cobbler is up to Sandler’s usual standards, but you might have expected more from its director.

Adam Sandler's latest vehicle quickly becomes unstitched.

**(*)(*)(*)Geoffrey MacNab, The Independent, 31/07/2015

What should have been a whimsical parable about fixing your own life by helping to fix the lives of others becomes instead a schmaltzy, never-funny body-swapping comedy.

**(*)(*)(*)Alistair Harkness, The Scotsman, 01/08/2015

A shoe-mender finds magical powers in this mawkish Adam Sandler vehicle.
