Mark W May 31 I ugly-laughed during some scenes. See more Cristiana B 06/15/2022 I think "Meh" is too great a compliment for this tacky mess. "Rotten" is about right. I just didn't care about any of these annoying characters, or think anything about them was funny. My husband thought it was "pretty good" though, so we watched the whole thing - but if it had been up to me, I would have turned it off within ten minutes! See more ROSS M 10/27/2020 Despite the critics, this one is highly amusing for about 60% of it's running time & then starts to pull its punches & run out of steam. The good portion is laceratingly funny, the bad is filler-we-have-all-seen. The lesbian sub-plot is indicative - it provides the straight man (no pun intended) for a series of solid riffs & then heads for the most predictable & safest waters imaginable. Is there anyone anywhere who did not see that denouement coming? The twins are excellent but run out of lines. The whole cast (especially Piper Laurie & even Ray Ramondo) dives in to the film with gusto & give the film a lot of it's charm but the script can't support them to the end. A disappointing failure of courage. I'd normally rate a 3 but have awarded an extra half point thanks to the critics being, well, over critical. See more steve d 06/28/2020 Entertainingly odd but fairly forgettable. See more 09/29/2019 It could have been a very funny and enjoyable movie. It has great actors that did terrible acting. It seems all of the lines were forced. Zooey Deschanel (Kate Collins/character) was absolutely terrible. It was like she didn't even want to be in the movie. The humor really never flowed. Jesse Bradford (Ryan Carmichael, Boyfriend to Kate) was the best & most believable character. But poor directing and terrible editing really liked this otherwise better movie. They really missed the mark. See more brendan n 10/07/2018 The ensemble cast tries hard with the material and raises this above the average comedy film it would have been. The funeral scene has to be one of the funniest parts of the film, it is carefully orchestrated and hits every beat. The love story with Zooey Deschanel and Jesse Bradford feels very forced and wastes time better off spent with the family. I enjoyed the film for its indie roots and that it refuses to fall into the cliché pitfall. The cast plays well together and I'm shocked how many character actors they were able to convince to act in this film. Not for everyone but it definitely is worth your time if you enjoy a large cast that does not follow the Hollywood template. 07/10/2018. See more Read all reviews
