Skip it. Despite the charming premise about literally walking in someone else's shoes, this Adam Sandler vehicle is a forgettable, heavy-handed fantasy-drama that squanders its magical concept with sloppy execution and unearned sentimentality. You've got better options for tonight.

Plot

Max Simkin repairs shoes in the same New York shop that has been in his family for generations. Disenchanted with the grind of daily life, Max stumbles upon a magical heirloom that allows him to step into the lives of his customers and see the world in a new way. Sometimes walking in another man's shoes is the only way one can discover who they really are.
