About this movie

Kristen Wiig stars as Imogene, a failed New York playwright who is forced to make the humiliating move back home to New Jersey with her eccentric mother and younger brother (Annette Bening and Christopher Fitzgerald) after both her career and relationship hit the skids. Adding further insult to injury, there's a strange man sleeping in her old bedroom (Darren Criss) and an even stranger man sleeping in her mother's bed (Matt Dillon). Through it all, Imogene eventually realizes that, as part of her rebuilding process, she must finally come to love and accept both her family and her Jersey roots if she's ever going to be stable enough to get the hell away from them.

Ratings and reviews

This movie paced so slowly with minute and boring changes in the events of this characters life. I tried to finish the movie but had to give up the last 20 minutes as nothing interesting was happening. They did a good job of making the lead character sad and non-interesting. The movie should have centered on Annette Benning, the only light at the end of this boringly dark tunnel.

Loved this movie while its not a 5★ movie it deserves more accolade then it's getting. And Cassandra Hightower is right its perfect for Kristen Wiig. She's so underrated. And I don't think Kristen Wiig cares too be taken seriously if she did she'd stop doing movies like these. I hope she doesn't

There really was no saving grace for this movie -- an unsympathetic main character and a non-existent to ridiculous plot line made for a less than stellar experience.
