Michael B I don't know why so many people and critics didn't like this movie, I found it quite enjoyable. It's different, it's got some very funny moments and some touching bits. Sure, some of the characters are not particularly likeable, but doesn't that accurately reflect life? Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/15/25 Full Review Lawrence R I liked this film. Not too lighthearted, not overly dramatic, just a good story told by talented actors with a bit of humor thrown in.

I am not particularly a fan of Jason Bateman but I like him very much in this movie. Acting was good though in some parts overdone. But fun movie all around for an evening with popcorn. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/11/25 Full Review Kevin P The raunchy humor is very hit-or-miss, half the characters are very unlikeable, and the dialogue can get awkward with exposition and borderline pretentious at times. However, the star-studded cast are doing the best they can with the so-so script and carry a lot of charm and chemistry with their scenes together. Despite my prior complaints, the movie can still be funny from time to time, usually whenever the main leads quit the raunchy one-liners and focus on more casual family moments like in the classroom scene. The story is kind of a mess, particularly with how the mother is framed more as a misguided quirky matriarch rather than the toxic emotional manipulator that she is. However, the rest of the story with the main siblings trying to find closure and meaning in their lives can be quite touching at times whenever it’s not trying to be too melodramatic. Overall, it’s a mixed bag, but I still had an okay time with it, and I’m glad I finally got to watch it with my girlfriend after all these years of her hyping it up for me. I particularly like the ending symbolism with Jason Bateman’s character venturing off to Maine on the highway to let loose and explore beyond on the horizon. Very relatable moment to conclude a messy but relatable movie.
