There are no special effects, zombies, high tech, or violence in this film, so the chances that it would resonate with American audiences was very low. I generally hate films about writers who are "blocked"; they are generally people who are blockheads, not blocked. This story is about one of those blockheads who redeems himself by rejoining the human race via his family and next door neighbor, Joy. It is a simple story, but a very amusing one, as each member of the family is revealed to us by their own peculiar preferences. Joy is also peculiar; and we learn that just about everyone in the world is peculiar in their own way. A very insightful film. Be beware of the cat.

A quaint little tale about a writer and a dysfunctional family. I really enjoyed this, it was funny, witty and had a good little message about life hidden between the absurdity of the characters. If you liked 'little miss sunshine' and/or 'meet the fockers' or that sort of movie you would prob enjoy this too.

I was not sure what to expect from this as there was no review written for it yet, nor did I know much about the actors as I do not tend to watch a lot of TV series. Overall, however, I thought it was quite well acted. I noted that most of the directors previous works were all shorts so if this is his first attempt at a full length feature it is very impressive and I am sure we will be seeing more brilliance from him in the future.

The story is well written too and the storyline is clever without trying to be overly clever, nor is the comedy element overly bearing. It is the type of movie that always leaves you wanting a little bit more and hopefully in time perhaps they could build on this little gem. I was a little bit down and bored this evening and this was just what I needed.
