A good idea which somehow got lost in translation (pardon the pun!)

Rating: 5/10 (13 April 2012)

I like the premise: you get the opportunity to fast forward through the annoyances in life.
I'm certain we'd all like that!
I was confused at the uneven plot devices. I got the impression that there was more than one director. A scene would be progressing reasonably with some pretty good laughs, then suddenly - a really stupid gag is introduced.
This was unfortunate because it brought it to a rather low humour level which didn't mesh well with the rest of it.
So although I liked the general idea, I felt the execution was weak. Shame, because they had a really excellent cast.
The cast did their best, and were convincing in their roles, but for me the movie missed the mark.
