Movie - - Here Is Where I Leave You

[Dave (imported)]

Here is Where I leave You is floating around my cable.

It tries to be one of those "Estranged and storage family meets after death of patriarch and finds salvation and purpose" but it fails.

It seems that the Mother, who is oversexed and outrageously wearing a new breast augmentation, wants the five sons and their wives, or girlfriends to sit Shiva for a father who everyone thought was a professed atheist but was a tiny part Jewish.

this is a dignity-free and very dumb romp with the oversexed, they horny, a potty-training kid, and egos that need to be kicked in the ass.

And the end is enigmatic. Does anyone learn? No. Is that real life - - both yes and no.

You see, at the end of a life when everyone has to come together and mourn, we want to see people learn something from a life and we want to a resolution that gives some meaning. This is superficial and smarmy with too many potty jokes and too many attempts at sex and a scene in a large synagogue with marijuana that shames the writers and actors.

The word that comes to mind is "vapid."

But, did you like it?

Or should we say Dave shits on another looser film.

It's better than TED (I've see half of #1 and will never see any of #2) which is the movie about the talking stuffed animal.

However, when i got down with "Here is Where I leave You" I was sorry I ever came.

No, I didn't like it.
