Title: Entertainment...Not So Much
Review: If one is looking for an light, entertaining movie about a familywedding, keep moving because this film is not for you. This well-acted but disturbing film was difficult to watch at times. It isan honest portrayal of a family dealing with unresolved issues, feelings and unspoken words as a result of addiction, that finally bubbles up at what is meant to be a joyful event. I think I would have liked to have known more of the back story and learned a little more about the characters, particularly Debra Winger's role as the mother. In so many stories, we always see the mother as the one trying to "make it all better". Here we see the father taking on that role. I don't know if I liked this film but definitely thoughtit was interesting and thought provoking.
Is the review positive or negative?
