In the spirit of Frank Capra!!!

Rating: 8/10 (24 June 2006)

Adam Sandler seems to like the movies that have a happy ending and feel good throughout the flick... here it's no different.
Sandler's character is a bogged down architect that has a snake of a boss (Hasselhoff) that pushes and pushes while waving a carrot in front of Sandler for promotion to get more and more from him. This works to get Adam Sandler's character to miss out on family events and avoid the process of work.
As the 'Universal Remote' starts programming itself so he can avoid the things he dislikes the most, he finds himself fast forwarding through life and all it brings.
The concept is simple and the meaning is not lost and you'll get an "It's a Wonderful Life" feel at the ending! The cast is superb and you'll see many of the stock players from other Adam Sandler movies. Not a little kid movie, but definitely a teenager movie on up! Worth the price of admission... go and enjoy this movie, then buy it in time for the holidays!
