4 out of 10 Revealing

John from Laois, 05 Oct 2007
My favourite film of all time! If you've ever felt you are between two people in your family who don't get on, then you will love this film. Hilarious and moving all the way through.

3 out of 10 Fairly enjoyable
laura from Dublin, 24 Nov 2009
Realistic portrayal of a flawed family. This movie has a good heart, some very funny moments and a fairly uplifting tone given the serious subject. Worth watching.

What's it about....
