Overview
Louie Jeffries is happily married to Corinne. On their first anniversary, Louie is killed crossing the road. Louie is reincarnated as Alex Finch, and twenty years later, fate brings Alex and Louie's daughter, Miranda, together. It's not until Alex is invited to Louie's home that he begins to remember his former life, wife and best friend. Of course, there's also the problem that he's attracted to Louie's/his own daughter.
This movie walked a line between being really mediocre and being decent. I think the presence of RDJ makes this movie a bit better than it has any right to be. I do respect how they resolved the conflict (especially given the ridiculous premise), but the rest of the movie was just so-so.
