Synopsis

Spoiler shield

A married workaholic, Michael Newman doesn't have time for his wife and children, not if he's to impress his ungrateful boss and earn a well-deserved promotion. So when he meets Morty, a loopy sales clerk, he gets the answer to his prayers: a magical remote that allows him to bypass life's little distractions with increasingly hysterical results.

Love the concept of this movie. I wish I can use it on my girlfriend it would be great. Adam Sandler makes great movies. Hilarious and sad but with a happy ending.
