That's one way to explain what was a missed opportunity with the ensemble cast featured in this alleged comedy. A single father (played by the rapper/actor Common), is suddenly beset by a relationship revelation and a curious incident at his place of employment. While his daughter waits for his Career Day presentation at her school, that very place is the scene of a man's dead body at the school. It's being handled by administrators in a curious "we must keep this secret" fashion. The directing debut of Judy Greer (professional "best friend" in multiple rom-coms) doesn't hold much appeal beyond some scenery. Most characters here you care just enough about, but it's in a mostly unfunny script.

Directing DEBUT of actress Judy Greer. It is quite a warmhearted, nicely made quirky, slowburning comedy, but it somehow didnt ignite...

The bad:there is a fine line between quirky and silly. And quirky comedy is the kind of jokes that are created out of weird, but true to life situations. Silly comedies however, are created out of absurd NOT true to life situations. This movie tried to mix quirky with silly jokes and that was it weak point.

I liked this movie when it tried to be serious and true to life. I did not like this movie that much when it geared into silly territory.

The good: a bunch of great actors, acting really well. Lots of original, witty dialogues. Lots of funny plot turns. And an overall really warmhearted spirit of caring for one another, packaged inside a bit of a silly story of marital infidelity and office shenanigans.

I think I laughed 3 times in the entire movie. Also, Keanu Reaves is the first actor listed in this app and he's in the movie for all of 5 minutes. I remember when comedies used to be funny.

This is not horror,thriller,romance,drama,sci-fi,musical or comedy, its just a bunch of actors that are usually above average standard in the art of acting, clinging to a ozone layer thin storyline about stupid teachers, a dead man,a lottery ticket,a damaged coffee machine,dultrey and adultry and soforth. its just a mess of a screenwriters decline toward alzheimer because it shows all the signs of a demented person. this comedy didnt even make me smile,it didnt even engage a braincell which ive got tens/tons of,a motheaten product of nothing. i give 2 because of the children.

Avoid this disaster. Horrible ending. The whole bathroom scene was so cringeworthy! All the star power couldn't save this dud. And now I see I have to leave at least 150 characters so I'll end it by saying I wonder if any of the A listers are sorry they made this film.

Genuinely awful, avoid this at all costs.

I can't believe I wasted an evening watching this, thankfully it's a short film.

Silly, cringe worthy, unfunny and a waste of my entertainment seeking time. If anyone's not feeling great before watching the movie, they won't feel any better after watching it.

Not exactly what one was expecting but it turned out to have this touching thing going on in the interface between the child and adult worlds - for me anyway. The disappointed user reviews suggest the film was marketed wrongly as another gross-out caper, which it only sort of is. OK some scenes are a bit awkward and off-beat, but actually consider it a dark comedy drama dealt out with a deft and light touch. I enjoyed the rich photography of the edge of city school location especially the glowing finale, the heart warming pop soundtrack, and the actors of all ages are great with quirky characters to match. Give it a break dissing it and let others have a try -- or is urbanity and optimism now so really out of fashion?

I don't understand WTF I just watched. Seriously, there's no genre that this movie comes even close to... And hopefully no movie will EVER try again.

I'm a West Wing tragic so when I saw Bradley Whitford and Allison Janney in the same movie I was beside myself with joy.

This movie is SO BAD that not even the talents of these two exceptional actors could save it.

One look at the cast and it's just amazing that all these people agreed to do this monumentally stupid film. They must have REALLY been hurting for work during the pandemic? Dunno. I RARELY write reviews but this one was such a waste of time, waste of talent, waste, waste, waste...

Forgettable, but amusing, not sure what the story was about. Spent most of the movie wondering who was Keanu Reeves and whether he had changed his appearance. Realised at the end that he was there because of his name.

What a weird show. The casting director must've called in every favor they had. The problem this was not the direction or the acting. It was the story. With better writing this could've actually been OK. Instead, I kept wondering why the writer wrote what he wrote. After having watched the movie, I still can't figure it out. There was no point to it. I should've believed the reviews.

Most of the actors in this did a decent job. Katie Holmes's part was kind of a waste. She must really like Judy Greer or something.

But the star of the show was the casting Director. I can't think of any other reason why all of these good actors were in this.

As the title says it's one weird movie. It goes nowhere!

No worries- this isn't a spoiler; starts out with the dead guy.

In one word - Cute? That's all I've got. You can tell that this was an earnest first try in directing by someone who got her famous friends together to do a indie project. Script was weak. Too many big names with small, unneeded parts.

Began as what I thought would be a dramady with trying to hide a dead body found on school grounds right before school was to open. We got a little backstory in a couple kids and grownups at drop off. Mixed in a little suspense at the workplace. And Bob. What's going to happen when Bob meets Daniel?

There seemed to be no effort of anything, um, monumental. I may have been happier if I had found out who the dead guy was. "Red Herring", I believe, was his name. Dead guy and title is what made me want to watch. Don't watch. Get crib notes.

I hadn't heard anything about this movie, and quite frankly didn't know that it existed.

Now I know why. I laughed once. Once.

Plenty of predictable outcomes in this one. I decided to watch it since the on screen guide said comedy. There were no ⭐'s and having watched it, again, now I know why.

There are several familiar names and faces like Riggle, Garner and Common, but they had nothing to work with here.

The premise of what to with a dead person before the students arrive at the school seemed interesting so I went with it. This film probably could have been a lot better, but it just wasn't.

Sorry folks.
