"Its a wonderful life" would have been a much better title for the movie, "ME AGAIN" sounds inane and weird. The movie also mentions about "Its a wonderful life", let alone being hugely inspired by it. So we have the lead character who finds Life unfair as in so many other movies - the only novel thing about this is that the protagonist is a Pastor - and finds out a miracle way to know others' lives and how things in life ought to be balanced. Finally a Happy Ending blessed by God, we all feel rejuvenated, animated and excited about life albeit having watched a badly made movie. In fact, felt more like watching many movies at a time - from Bruce Almighty to Don Camillo.
The plot so loose, the screenplay so glossy and the background score quite irksome at times. It never launches well with some mediocre acting and badly executed shots which mars the movie experience right from the beginning. The ending was awesome for a movie which niggled throughout, the "hero's" speech stands out which saves the movie from hitting rock bottom. Thoroughly disappointed that the movie ends up a lackluster product despite having the thread which was destined to be great. 6/10

The beginning of the movie was good, funny moments through out... BUT this movie is basically quantum leap, the main character rich is too similar to sam and his best friend is just like al and half the story line is straight out of quantum leap episodes, even the actor that plays the angel in this movie is the same actor who plays god in the last episode of quantum leap. plus not as good as quantum leap so not really impressed. The scenes in this movie where rich has "leaped" into female characters is just like quantum leap. The dialog between rich and tony is just like sam and al. If you like recycled movies then you will probably like this, i would recommend this movie to anyone that hasn't seen quantum leap, then i would suggest that you watch quantum leap as it is far better than this movie. The last ten minutes of this movie was the worst religious rant i have ever heard in a while.
I don't even know who this movie is for, it's themes are more directed to an older crowd but the dumb jokes and simple writing is geared more towards children.
First off, this is a story that has been done many times before and done much better than this lazy crap.
One of the biggest problems is that David A.R white is a terrible and unfunny actor, director and writer.
They start by trying to show just how overworked Rich is, he is sleeping in his office, drinking Pepto and alka-seltzer and forgetting what day it is.
The office is crazy, paperwork everywhere, bills all over the place, you would think he is some sort of alchoholic business man but nope he is a @#$&ing pastor.
They don't justify anything he is going through, showing him drinking Alka Seltzer is supposed to be enough.
His wife is a stereotype, the kids are a stereotype and this movie is the ultimate white Christian fantasy.
The problems in this movie are not problems, the idea that the Christian god has to intervene in these petty and simple issues is just ridiculous and frankly kind of sad.

From the outside looking in, Rich Chaplin (David A. R. White) has everything that any Pastor and family man could ever want. In reality Pastor Rich has lost sight of the blessings that God has given him, including his family and ministry. When he dreams for a life other than his own, he suddenly finds himself trapped within the lives of everyone his apathy has effected. Rich quickly realizes that he is wasting his God-given chance to love and impact the most important people in his life, will he get a second chance?
Just the normal spiritual based themed movie nothing to special. Not bad but not the best.

At first glance this movie is truly corny in parts. I almost turned it off in a couple different spots that were painful to watch they were so bad. But because there was content/circumstances in the storyline I could relate to in my own life, curiosity kept me watching. And I'm glad I did. The corny parts all seem to become justified, forgivable, and actually endearing in the nuggets of wisdom and feel good scenes that result. The message is a powerful one...one that I have turned back to and watched again, and that brought me to tears the second time around allowing me to hear things I missed the first time. God does have mysterious ways of speaking to us...even it's through somewhat corny outlandish movies.
