2016 · 100 min

A broad, chatty family comedy that mines awkward bedside squabbles for laughs, breezy but with a faint sting of greed underneath.

How it feels: Satirical, cynical, absurd and light. Brisk and easy to follow.
About: Greed, family, death, betrayal
Content: Mild sexual content and language. No violence or gore.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
