An interesting movie (Spoilers)

Rating: 9/10 (22 June 2006)

I went in to the movie with low expectations, just because a remote that can change your life is a little stupid, but I was actually very surprised. Most of what you see in the trailers is only at the beginning, but as the story progresses, you see what your life can be like if you put it on autopilot. Interesting, funny, even a little sad in parts, its a great family movie. One character in the mix, is played by Sean Astin, who I didn't expect to see. As he steals Michael Newman's wife, the story turns yet again, making Michael's family dislike him even more. You see what is going on in the future, which is where half the story takes place. His life is turning in the wrong direction, and the remote has taken control of his life. When he is fast forwarding, he is still living, but he has no emotions, so he hurts everyone he loves. This is a great movie for the whole family.
