Family

Taylor Schilling is excellent here, playing against type as an unlikeable, socially awkward singleton who has no time for anyone or anything. The child actor is this was 100% believable and not as all distracting. A great performance. The writing was excellent and even managed to make Insane Clown Posse likeable. My only issue with this film was the sound editing. The dialogue was quiet but the music quite loud.

The basic set up will remind you of Uncle Buck, but thankfully the film has more going for it than just that. The acting all around is great. Taylor Schilling does a really good job playing this type of character and was fun seeing other familiar faces pop up in bit roles here and there as well such as Brian Tyree Henry (playing a martial arts instructor which is a interesting turn for him), Kate McKinnon, Allison Tolman, and Natasha Lyonne. The juggalos were mostly portrayed fairly accurately and it was fun seeing the Insane Clown Posse themselves show up towards the end though I wish their scene had been longer or that they played a slightly bigger role I guess (but also understand the main story wasn't really about them). All in all don't overlook this one. Sure the title Family is a little generic for a film but that's really my only negative. The comedy lands really well and is actually fresh and hilarious rather than material that felt recycled. Dialogue especially was a standout.

It's really a great family movie. It comforts you and tells the real fact that all are weird in there core. Once you understand and accept your weirdness then there's nothing stopping you enjoying your life. Surprised to see lower rating.

A very lovely story, pretty funny, and heartwarming! All the stuff that happens is entertaining; everything about Family is great I'd highly recommend it. I love watching Taylor Schilling in anything after Orange is the new black.

While this is not a great movie, it was funny enough. If you're only going for Kate McKinnon, her role is small but choice. But the main cast was also solid. Well worth watching.

But take a closer look at the user reviews. Funny thing -- all of the 1 star reviews were posted on the same day. It looks to me like a bunch of haters got together and vomited their bile on this movie.
