On the surface, Michael Newman (Adam Sandler) seems to have it all, yet with all the demands forced upon him by his ungrateful boss (David Hasselhoff), Michael finds that setting aside time to spend with his loving wife, Donna (Kate Beckinsale), and two picture-perfect children, Ben (Joseph Castanon) and Samantha (Tatum McCann), has grown increasingly difficult. When a frustrating bout with the television remote leads the overworked husband and father to a nearby Bed, Bath & Beyond in search of a universal remote with the power to control all of his electronic devices, a curious peek into the back room leads Michael into the company of eccentric employee and talented inventor Morty (Christopher Walken). It seems that Morty has created a device that will not only allow Michael complete control over his television and stereo, but his entire life as well. As Michael discovers that the remarkable device has the power to muffle the barks of the family dog, zoom himself past an irritating quarrel with his wife, and even allow him to travel back and forth through time to different points in his life, the rush of being able to skip straight to the good parts in life soon leaves him feeling as if he's missing out on the total experience. Only when Michael begins to realize that the he has lost control of his life and the remote is now programming him does he finally learn that life is as much about the moments he'd rather forget as it is the moments he will always remember.

---> another movie from the great actor Adam Sandler and what do you expect? of course a comedy. however, this is not only a funny movie but a very heart warming one too. you'd think that it will be all laughs but this film has a lot of significant points shown. it is mostly about how important life is, how every second matters, how we deal with our everyday life, how we should be able to cope and overcome trials and then eventually, learn from it. this movie even made me cry a bit a couple of times as it approached its ending, the part where he run as he tried to get hold of his family and the part when he was given a chance to see his father one last time. the film truly portrayed the value of a family thus its a good family movie. in fact, its a highly recommended movie for everyone to see. with its great message, excellent actors and an extremely creative story that made a lot of sense.

MICHAEL: Forever and ever, babe.

[Michael was told his father, Ted, died. In his grave, he asks the remote to flashback to the last time he saw him. Flashback: Michael's very busy working and his son, Ben, arrives]
BEN: Hi, Dad. Sorry to bother you. Would you mind looking at my shopping mall design again? This one is cheaper, but... If you check this out, you'll see it has much better natural flow...
MICHAEL: [Flashback-Michael interrupts without having seen his son's project] Cheaper one, like I said. Just, let me do my e-mail.
