À propos de ce film

Notes et avis

Plenty of very funny moments and I'm glad I watched it. Most of the jokes land pretty solidly and the pace is quick enough that you forget about the ones that don't. I didn't feel much of a bond with the character of the daughter but the performance seemed fine and it just didn't connect for me. Maybe because she was mostly the straight man with everyone around her being really outrageous. She did have one scene where she let loose a little bit. They didn't nail the ending but it was still good. Overall an above average comedy with a very likeable cast.

Not worth your time. Really. Tasteless to where it just becomes boring. If you're into raunch that keeps being repeated continually, to where you begin to get bored with the same basic dialogue over and over again, (nothing new) this movie's for you. I liked the dad, but the rest of the family tried to be funny...and weren't. So sad.

Think twice before watching this movie. This movie is very harsh! I watch half of the movie. It got tiring watching James Franco doing & saying crude things. Dont waste your time!
