Thank Heaven's for Fast-Forward

Rating: 1/10 (18 June 2007)

Harried workaholic Michael Newman (Adam Sandler) is given a "universal" remote control, by Morty (Christopher Walken) that allows him to (1) REWIND time, (2) JUMP FORWARD in time, (3) SUSPEND time altogether. Unfortunately, the audience is given no such device that might blessedly allow it to SUSPEND its strained credulity, which screen writers Steve Koren and Mark O'Keefe tax beyond all tolerable limits.
After forty-five minutes of cloying tedium from this fatuous (worse-than-juvenile), INCREDIBLY UNFUNNY comedy -- the "plot" never thickens...only sickens -- I called it quits.
Please do NOT try to contact me with "kind" offers to disclose the ending of this soporific piece of confection. I've been soundly punished by it enough.
