Movie Spoiler Warning!! [Can Ruin A Movie Ending]

Michael Newman (Adam Sandler), an architect, is married to his longtime sweetheart Donna (Kate Beckinsale) with two children, Ben and Samantha. Michael is easily pushed around by his overbearing boss Mr. Ammer (David Hasselhoff). On numerous occasions, Michael willingly sacrifices time with his family to work so he can give them the kinds of material possessions his parents never gave him as a boy.

One night, after Michael loses his temper at the number of remote controls in the house, he goes in search of a universal remote control. At a Bed Bath & Beyond, Michael collapses onto a bed and then proceedes to the section marked "Beyond." There, he meets a mysterious clerk named Morty (Christopher Walken), who gives him a "universal" remote control and warns that it can never be returned.

To Michael's amazement, he finds that the remote can control the actual universe, particularly time. Michael uses it to skip fights with Donna, go forward until he rids himself of a cold, and skip a family dinner to work. Later, Morty reveals that when Michael fast-forwards through time, his body is on "auto-pilot" - his mind skips ahead, while his body does everyday life.

After Mr. Ammer promises Michael a partnership position within a few months, he decides to skip ahead to it, but ends up skipping a year of his life since it took him that long to actually get the promotion. Michael also finds out that he is in marriage counseling and missed the death of his dog. When the remote begins fast-forwarding without Michael controlling it, Morty warns the remote programs itself according to Michael's previous commands. Michael's various attempts to dispose of or destroy the remote fails. The next day, Mr. Ammer tells Michael he is leaving the country, and in the course of the conversation, Michael reveals his desire to be CEO in 2007. The remote reacts and fast-forwards ten years to 2017. Michael is now the CEO, but is obese, lives alone, his kids are teenagers and hate him and he is divorced from Donna. Michael visits his old house and, after fighting with Donna, the new family dog pounces on him, and he falls and hits his head.

The remote having "learned" from Michael having skipped his cold, it transports him six years into the future, as he hadn't been healthy a single day over those six years: Donna recounts how a precautionary MRI scan after the fall revealed cancer, and how Michael ate so prolifically during chemotherapy as to subsequently suffer from a heart attack. In those six years, Michael is no longer obese thanks to liposuction, Donna has re-married Ben's old swim coach, Bill, and Ben has gone into his father's line of work. Ben tells Michael his father Ted died, and Michael uses the remote to view the last time they spoke. While on auto-pilot, Michael angrily rejected Ted's offer for a night out with him and Ben. During Michael's grief, Morty reveals he is the Angel of Death. Fearing him, Michael wants to go to a "happy time", and fast forwards to Ben's wedding. There, he witnesses Samantha call Bill "Dad", and the shock triggers a second heart attack. When Michael awakens, Morty appears to tell him that he chose his path and there is nothing he can do about it. Michael's family arrives and Ben reveals that he has canceled his honeymoon in order to work on an important deal that will keep his business going. Not wanting Ben to make the same mistakes he did, Michael rushes after him. A nurse attempts to stop him but Michael manages to jab the man with a sedative. He ignores Morty's warnings that he'll die if he isn't hooked up to the machines in the hospital. Michael reaches his family and convinces Ben that family comes first; he reassures the rest that he loves them and then passes away.

There is a white flash, and Michael wakes up in the present day on the bed he collapsed onto at the Bed Bath & Beyond, realizing that the events have all been "a dream." He makes amends with his father, and reassures Donna, Ben, and Samantha of his affection for them and that he'll never sacrifice them for work again. As he celebrates being home, Michael finds the remote and a note sitting on his kitchen counter. After reading the note, which states that Morty knew Michael would do the right thing this time, he throws the remote in the trash and goes to start his new life with his family.
