A fantastic and underrated movie - RayneeDeigh
Don't let the bad reviews dissuade you from renting this. It's a beautiful film about what it means to be part of a family - the good and the bad. The characters are neurotic but likeable. Rather than a "traditional" plot, this movie takes three lives and shows you a chunk of time in them. True to real life, there is sometimes no resolution. If you're looking for a happy ending look elsewhere, but if you're looking for a fantastic movie see this!Lovely But Not Amazing - Piknik
Disappointing for a film with such a stellar cast. The plot just floats along and the only questionable choice (among many made by the three main characters) that results in a truly negative consequence is the mother's infection from liposuction. It would be interesting to see what would come of the same script & same actors but directed by Mike Leigh. It needs some more grit.Lovely - Domino
As in the title, very lovely film whitout much going on but enough to keep you interested. Once in a while, a tranquil movie is nice to watch. The actresses are very good and for such a low key movie it's not something easy to do I'm sure. Worth watching.
