Au pays des habitudes

I liked it despite it being somewhat less than uplifting and some shortcomings with the characterisations of some of the cast. No, maybe not too many of the characters were likeable but then that's very like life - well, mine after more than fifty years - and I did care what happened to them. Worth seeing.

I enjoyed it. Didn't check my phone once while watching it. No plot, per se. Low-key family drama, slightly hollow and cliche in spite of what it tries to be. I liked it particularly because I can relate. I grew up 30 minutes from where the movie was filmed, and I have a relative who lives in Westport. Each character reminds me of at least one person I know in real life-it's a very real movie about real problems. Interesting because there is no overt moral to the story but rather a vicarious lesson in how relationships and pain are inextricable.

I was tired of thrillers and suspense so I tried this movie on Netflix. It's lighthearted but sad. Not much happens, just a slice of life. I didn't hate it but I probably won't remember it. I give this 5 / 10.

Decent, honest movie. No grandeur, over the top USA stuff, a little nice drama about zombie hood called 'normality', and how hard it is to get out...

By watching this film, you won't get a story, or some profound way to "live the best life" it's about reality, it's about knowing the things that you do or plan will always not result in happiness. Savour it's slowness in solitude, hopefully you will connect with Anders.
