This was uncomfortably funny at so many moments when you could see each character wrestle with their fears and insecurities. The way the middle age adults assess what they have done with their lives. The way the teenaged girl feels so alone and isolated from her parents, even as they try harder to keep their desperate grasp on her. The actual storyline is a bit cooky, but in the end this was about what we have and what we yearn for. This is heavy stuff, wrapped in a thin but tough layer of comedy.

Interesting, fun, suspenseful, odd, and quirky adventures of an average middle aged housewife dealing with the doldrum of her suburban middle class life. Not usually something I would watch but it almost felt like a documentary. Give it a shot.

Being male, with loads of years on my spine, this was actually a film that i understood from a female standpoint. its a picture of a womans life, with her daughter, husband, sister, a cat, loads of other hot spot females, a teenage boy, his ravaging crazy mother and the father that becomes the main caracters sex buddy. well hormones may be confusing for teenagers, have a look at this flick and youll for sure find out that its a whole soup of renderingly crazy hormones in the 40's too.

i liked this film because its honest in a humble way, its funny enough to make me giggle, uncomfy it is too. the main actress does a great job, and makes the whole story believale and interesting. if you expect lots of sexual then youre in a cul de sac.

the grumpy old man do really appreciate films with a nice score, and the humming in the background makes it even better, a bit abrubt pianish in the start but its very balanced when it comes to terms. even though its not a blockbuster movie some of you will find it amusing and a fullfilment in a stressy everydaylife, so let the hormones fly...or cry. its a recommend

A script with a little nuance for a change. It's not a perfect movie, but it feels authentic in places and has a sense of humor.

Intriguing and funny drama about life, about facades, and how things can and do unravel despite our best efforts to keep everything under control. Excellent performance by the lead actress. Very, very good film. The low ratings are baffling, I really wonder what it would take to please most of these reviewers. They probably think Citizen Kane is garbage. Ignore the bad reviews, give this one a try, it's a couple of hours well spent.
