Not only a good reflection of today's crazy overparenting but also, a pertinent look of our "performing" society.
A movie that challenges the viewers to question their parenthood, marriage and the way the system has been dealing with the youth. It has drama but also lots of humour and social critics in between ...not a movie for kids but for young adults and maybe teenagers.
I gave it a 10 because there is no 9.5 the movie has its flaws but delivers a strong and honest message that is hardly seem to be delivered from most movies.

Such a great movie! The best one in Quebec cinema for a decade. When Morissette is first author, you can't go wrong. Very enjoyable.
I would leave to the viewer the final conclusion about this film. It touches, with a great amount of realism, the chasm between generations for a family living in the second decade of the 21st century. Attitudes grabbed from fads on the internet. Disconnection inside a dysfunctional family. Stress and anxiety coming from a job or from school. Millennial's ways of expressing their stand in life. Split ideas on parenting. I believe this film deserves watching and understanding the complexity of relationships, the ways in which we all dig our own graves by staying silent and, above all, the importance of empathy and love when things seem to go down the drain. Good and believable acting along with a superb editing make this film an interesting study on family dynamics.
Very good movie about the challenges of raising a family in this day and age !
