Plot so thin, it passes unnoticed.

A Brilliant Conflict

Blending excellent reporting and strong storytelling, this is a disturbing film truly stranger than fiction

There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

It's one of the best movies I have seen in a long time, about love, life and surviving it. It's an introspecting movie, with tons of laughter. I have always had a thing for accents, and 60% of me loved it because of the accent. the rest 60% is for the way the story was told. (Yeah, I know, it adds up to 120..but who wouldn't give it that much rating!). It's a perfect movie for a lazy Sunday with family, or any day when you don't feel like going on. this is a constant cheer, and it tells you what to do, to take control of your life. Now, don't mistake it for a spiritual kinda movie. It opens your eyes on the ways of the society and how to tackle everyday issues.

This is a fantastic cast but you must watch the entire movie and not quit because you want laughs at the beginning. YOU must watch the situations be set up. I had to watch this twice to catch all of the words as I am Australian accent deficient. The ending is wonderful. Please watch this with an open mind as you may just be surprised at how well you can laugh. Colletti is fantastic as usual and this is probably one of the first movies I've watched where she didn't have to be so darn serious all the time. The mother is just wonderful and is so polly-anna I thought I was watching Dinah Shore playing Melanie on Carol Burnett, sticking her head in the sugar bowl. And the Daddy is so different than Without A Trace. Watch it and laugh.

A real surprise ... actually, several of them! Not for everyone, and it seems a bit longer than it needed to be, but I loved it. WOW!The actors seemed like they were having a great time ... lots of fun.Some of the reviews I read seemed like they're applying a "standard movie" template and framework to what turns out to be more fun, more up and down, more loopy -- and yet more thoughtful and insightful -- than their standard template can accommodate. In fact, these reviews turn out to be the very same conformity (of thought, style, expectation, fear) that the movie very directly takes aim at. To Hogan, Collette, and the others: Very well done!

i am making a list of every reviewer who gave this movie a positive review and marking them never to read again as they have nothing to offer me when it comes to recommending movies. i was shocked to find out that it was the same director as Muriel's wedding but i then read he also did my best friends wedding and on remembering that singing scene at the restaurant were they all joined in it made perfect sense.(i say a little prayer for you!CRINGE) i am just so glad i didn't waste my money and time seeing it at the cinema but i am sorry i read the first 2 pages of user reviews on this site as it is not until the 3rd page that the truth comes out. for the first time ever i nearly asked video ezy for my $5.95 back but its not there fault.
