I saw the movie on an airplane which is why I’m having trouble remembering it.

A dramatic film that centers around a couple, man and woman, released somewhere between 2007 and 2016 I believe. They don’t seem too happy and argue a lot, the man is immature and unhappy. The key thing is that midway through the movie, the man realizes he has control over, or made a wish or something and the woman now agrees with whatever he says and follows his decisions or instructions. The guy loves it at first and then slowly realizes the loss of his partner’s free will kills the energy of a relationship and he wishes he had back his girl who could argue with him. The movie ends and he’s still unhappy. I don’t remember the female role hardly at all, the male actor I believe might have been like a B+/A- actor at that point in his career, I remember thinking I was surprised how good he was. Might have been someone who had done more comedy and tried a serious role?

I’ve tried scrolling through IMDB for those years looking at top few hundred films released in a year, lists of dramas by year, etc. and have come up empty.

I don’t remember many other plot points but appreciate any leads and will answer any questions that might help you help me!

    It’s not his wife in that though it’s his next door neighbour or something.
