The Cobbler starts off with an interesting premise and we are thrown in this fantasy world with a vintage funny Adam Sandler (doesn't last long) accompanied by great music by Nick Urata and John Debney. The music is probably the best part of the movie and whenever it gets going it sets the tempo, the whole thing feels more enjoyable and the only half laughs and smiles come with that.
Dustin Hoffman and Steve Buscemi don't have too much to do, but when they appear on screen they seem to make the movie a lot more interesting and they deliver the mediocre lines with some much needed charisma. Come the second half of the picture, even Sandler can't keep his character interesting, he starts fading off and the movie seems to do much better whenever he is not in a scene. The movie fails even in its core and more pure sense of delivering a message about solidarity and the togetherness within a community.
