When their father passes away, four grown siblings, bruised and banged up by their respective adult lives, are forced to return to their childhood home and live under the same roof together for a week. Confronting their history and the frayed states of their relationships among the people who know and love them best, they ultimately reconnect in hysterical and emotionally affecting ways amid the chaos, humor, heartache and redemption that only families can provide.
DVD, region 1, dual layer, widescreen; Dolby digital 5.1 surround.

COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Just simply awful. submitted by GJBarnett2 on January 15, 2015, 8:26am A family of rampant narcissists with no boundaries forced to spend a week in hell together sitting shiva for their late father. In one of the film's more subtle bits of sophisticated humor, the rabbi is called "Boner." Jane Fonda plays the materfamilias whose "career" consists of living on a tell-all book about her children's sexual experiences and who displays her boobs to her 30-something kids whom she regales with stories about her sex life with their late dad and his over-sized junk. The siblings thrive on exposing one-another's humiliating secrets. Nothing is beneath the dignity of these people because they have none. Saved, of course, by the predictable revelation that although these people have no respect for each other or even themselves, they all really love each other. A heart-warming laugh fest for the whole family. Screenplay by "SS Associates." Stoned sophomores. And in case you're entirely immune to sarcasm let me make it clear that this is just one simply awful movie.

Not that bad submitted by rsbrown on June 12, 2015, 1:53pm Definitely not the greatest movie but I don't think it was awful. I read the book first which helped with the backstory of the characters that there just isn't room for in a movie. However, I think the movie was better than the book, which is unusual. If you enjoy other movies these actors have done, I think you might like this one, too. Just don't expect too much.

Mixed submitted by leenajong on July 9, 2015, 8:06am Lots of big stars but not one of their greatest performance, I am afraid.

disappointed submitted by mmckenzie on July 9, 2015, 2:45pm I was hoping for better. You'll probably feel the same. Sorry to say so. This movie could have been so much more. The actors would have been up to the work, but the writing was lousy. (Maybe direction or producing, too, not sure, but probably.)

disappointed submitted by Jackie77 on August 9, 2015, 9:15am Was expecting a comedy, but got a drama/love story/heartbreak/infedility...etc. Too many topics without resolution all wrapped into one. Acting was not well either. I wouldnt watch again and im glad it was free to watch.

Eh submitted by kelleyc on August 18, 2016, 7:31am I couldn't really get into this movie. It wasn't particularly gripping.

Fine submitted by yenkong on August 18, 2017, 9:30pm I think it's ok movie. Family movie.

great to watch submitted by crp on August 22, 2019, 1:06am if you know anyone with infertility please warn them about this movie. it covers topics well but it's not necessarily something that is expected.
