Workaholic architect Michael Newman (Adam Sandler) stumbles on a universal remote control that allows him to pause events in his life or fast-forward through them. But things get really bizarre when the gadget develops a mind of its own and takes control of Michael's viewing choices, causing him to see how much of his family life he's sacrificed for his career. Christopher Walken and Kate Beckinsale co-star in this high-concept comedy.

ireviewnetflix.com rating: **** In a world of low brow, low concept comedies from Will Farrell, Ben Stiller, and others in the comedy genre, I'm so glad to see Adam Sandler mature. This was a great movie with a sweet story.
