Big Daddy

"Big Daddy" is a heartwarming comedy about a man who adopts a young boy to impress his girlfriend but learns the true meaning of fatherhood along the way. When his girlfriend dumps him for being immature, Sonny Koufax (Adam Sandler) decides to adopt a five-year-old boy named Julian (Cole Sprouse) to prove to her that he's ready for responsibility. However, Sonny quickly realizes that being a father is not as easy as he thought, especially when Julian starts to wet the bed and refuses to eat anything but macaroni and cheese. Despite the challenges, Sonny forms a deep bond with Julian and learns valuable lessons about love, sacrifice, and growing up. But when the adoption agency discovers that Sonny isn't the boy's biological father, he must confront his own identity and decide what it means to be a dad.
