This is Where I Leave You



2014 Movie # 40 is "This is Where I Leave You".   Great Title for a really good movie. It is called a dramatic comedy which fits well. It concerns about the most dysfunctional family that you can meet as the four siblings come together with their mother (Jane Fonda) to spend seven days together with spouses, significant others, and children to honor the death of their Jewish Atheist father.

It is R and it is rough language , but trust me: No matter how chaotic your family is, this will make you feel better about things.  This is a tremendous cast including: Jason Batman, Tina Fey, Jane Fonda, Corey Stoll, Adam Driver, Kathryn Hahn, Rose Byrne, Abigail Spencer, Timothy Olyphant and Ben Schwartz.  You might not know all the names, but you have seen them many times!

An Adult film about adults coping with messy lives.

Much to see, much to consider.

I give it ***1/2 stars
