Well done, formula movie.

This type of what-if story has been told many times, for example, “Mr. Destiny” (1990). So the concept is not unique. Yet Nicolas Cage and Téa Leoni pull it off pretty well. The basic story is a "what if?" A single successful man is shown what it would be like if he had married the girl he left. He wakes up in the new environment and is disoriented. One good touch that you do not see too often is that the daughter (Makenzie Vega) perceives the change and helps him cope with his new life. This is like “Peggy Sue Got Married” (1986), where, also starring Nicolas Cage, on recognizing her dilemma, they try to help her get back. The movie is worth a second watching. First for the story and second for the details.
