    Relatable satire with PC propaganda
    Most people would be able to relate to this family satire, and probably enjoy it more than I did.

    Family issues surface after a funeral. There's a lot of bickering, and not much grief. Every member of the family, including the maid, is selfishly dealing with their own issues, rather than support the grieving member.

    One couple complains about having to "live out of their suitcase" while contractors are building their closet, the parents are in the midst of separation because the mother is loud and overbearing, another couple has commitment issues, and so on - you get the picture.

    They all seem incapable to consider others, although in the end they care for each other, at least a little bit. There are a few "hehe" moments of humor, but not enough to make this movie worth watching.

    When the member of the family who lost both his wife and baby in an accident comes out of his room, where he retreated for some quiet from his bickering family, he seems right as rain. Apparently, he needed only a couple of weeks to get over the death of his loved ones, and talks about them very matter-of-factly.

    Then all the problems abruptly disappear for everyone, and they proceed to celebrate an engagement. The mourning for the wife and baby is glossed over, and too soon forgotten by the "caring" husband and his family.

    I was put off by the tip given in the movie for illegal immigrants to lie to the immigration officials if they are caught. As someone who went through immigration LEGALLY, I have little sympathy for those who cross the border illegally (and thus jumping the line), and then act as victims, WHINING about how difficult it is to break the law.
