A family suffering from a marriage breakdown, unexpected death, family break-up and estrangement doesn't sound like material for a light-hearted and ultimately uplifting and occasionally humorous tale but that's exactly what this movie delivers. It's well acted and the characters are likeable.

The casting was a little odd, the younger sister, Sara, looks much older to me than Linda, the supposedly older sibling, but this is a minor point. It may even be intentional as Sara is meant to be weighed down by her woes and suffering from repressed anger, whilst Linda is somewhat innocent, almost child-like in her dress sense and inability to assert herself.

This is not a laugh out loud comedy (nor intended to be), the humour is lightly sprinkled, but Linda's boyfriend was amusing in his oblivious selfishness, Sara's son adds some light-hearted moments, the interfering mother-in-law was well sketched and there is a generally charming and affectionate oddness to the relationships on display here.

As long as you don't expect deep drama or laugh a minute humour, this well-made and well-meaning tale is worth a look at.

I wanted to switch this off after first 10 minutes, but my wife wanted to give it a chance, so here i go...

Main problem is how unlikable main character is. People in the movie try to cheer her up or have meaningful discussion, but her favourite response is always "You should go now" or similar one word answer. Its very slow paced, with completely no character development at all, aiming nowhere and it doesnt have reasonable conclusion either. This was marked as comedy, but there was no single funny moment.

Maybe if you enjoy to watch clinically depressed, emotionless person, which doesnt even try, for 90 minutes, then this movie is for you.

This is rated 6/10 on IMDB and i had strong urge to controbute to rating correction to where it belongs - 3-4/10.

This is definitely one of the best films of the year, and a great way to cap off a very impressive year in movies, of course!

It is an incredible mix of drama and comedy in explicit ways, and to exception. The actors all do an incredibly great job, and the script accompining them is very brilliantly put together, to say the least.

The cinematography, cutting and editing is very good, very low scaled, unique and overall beautifully put together.

Overall, definitely a funny, yet dramatic and overall very much recommended film, that I would very much call a highlight of 2023, for sure. Give this a watch!
