The Family Man

Wow, what a rude awakening! To be sent to a time of "what if" and being forced to live it until you get to the point where you're actually satisfied and then you get sent back to reality.

Basically, Nicolas Cage's character gets transported into a new time and space where he didn't go off to college and he stuck around with his girl friend played by Tea Leoni and ended up marrying her. He had a few kids and well, life was different. No longer was he working nor living in the city, but he was in the burbs, just getting by on a poor wage, making ends meet.

And when he gets to the point where he's finally settling in and getting things together and also almost reclaiming his old position by fate, the angel, played by Don Cheadle sends him back and he's lonely again. What he does after... well... you need to watch and find out. It's pretty good!
