The Family Man
2000
***½
Director: Brett Ratner
Cast: Nicolas Cage, Tea Leoni, Don Cheadle, Jeremy Piven, Saul Rubinek

In the vein of It's a Wonderful Life, a selfish businessman gets a glimpse of what could've been if he had chosen to raise a family rather than pursue his career. It’s all predictable and manipulative stuff, but oddly moving and nicely done.
