A comedy that makes people cry

I accidentally watched this movie that was used to kill the boring time before going to bed, but I actually lost sleep for it; it was originally a comedy, but I would cry for it. Although it is a fast-moving product on the Hollywood production line as always, it is surprisingly extraordinary after reading it. This is "Click" (Chinese translation: magic remote control, super vulgar name).
Newman, a workaholic who always doesn't have enough time, discovered a universal remote that can make life fast and rewind. Not only can it control some household appliances, but even time and space are under the control of this little thing. With this remote control, he can "fast forward", "play back" or even "stop" his time at will, which means he can control the time freely. When he "fast-forward" at work, he can go home and spend time with his family immediately. When he does something wrong, he can "play it back" to let himself go back to the past and start over. With this "universal remote control", Michael's life seems to be very comfortable and comfortable. However, good times don't last long. One day, this universal remote control is no longer under his control, and Michael's life is also messed up by this crazy remote control. At the same time, Michael feels even more that a good life is not something "universal remote control" can help him get. Instead, he managed it carefully by himself... The
sad emotions started when Newman was getting old, and when his son was about to follow in his footsteps and gave up his wedding and honeymoon for work, Newman risked death. Escaped from the hospital. He fell down on the road in heavy rain and said to his son: "family come first!" Say to daughter Shan: "I love you!". Pointed his middle finger to Donna's current husband Bill, then shook his finger to indicate NO, and finally gave him an OK gesture. The most touching thing was to take out the paper towel, which read the sentence Donna once asked: Will you still love me in the morning! Donna replied: forever & ever, babe.
It was also at this time that I cried. Maybe it's been many years, I haven't been so touched for a long time, and I haven't been crying so happily for a long time. Perhaps it was Newman's feelings of guilt for his parents and the loss of the family. Each episode hit my inner weakness and resonated extremely well.
It was a dream, the grief ended quickly, and the ending was still happy. But for a long time I couldn't get rid of that kind of breathtaking dream. Cranberries' "Linger" is still reverberating.
Cherish your parents, cherish your family, and cherish yourself. If simple is no longer simple, it may take many ways to truly understand.

The following are the English lines I think are better:
1. Newman’s wife Donna is really beautiful, even the angel of death said: Your wife's rockin'body still drives me crazy.
2. Father passed away, Newman was immersed in work, Without knowing it, when he found out, he was only facing his father’s tombstone. What he did was to keep pressing the repeat button and listening to his father’s affectionate telling: I love you, son.

    family comes first. Good boy need rest. Money, work, go to NBLGBD and die. Family is the most important thing. Highly recommended, life is not complete without watching this movie

    I admit that I started watching with a prejudice, but now I think I'm a clever idiot! Watching a movie, never have preconceived notions, never have lustful eyes, never position in advance! I really didn't expect this film to give me such a big shock! As a comedy, it was really cheating, and it actually made me cry. There was no defense at all, the real tears were streaming down my face! Cherish now, cherish everything you still have...
