A stand-up comedian confesses to a murder on-stage at an open mic night to a shocked audience - his crime the result of a deadly triangle formed between his older sister, just released from prison after a 20-year stay for the murder of their parents, the loving bond he now shares with a caring surrogate family, and the ultimate choice he must make between them - his dysfunctional blood ties with his own sister, or his picturesque view of the ideal family.

Plot so thin, it passes unnoticed.

Clever and entertaining enough to recommend even to members of the 1%

It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

I don't know what's going on with people these days... Was everyone stoned that gave this movie a high score? That movie got a 6.7 on IMDB.... It's like if people film these movies in a certain way they immediately think it's good.. Why aren't people thinking anymore?Like if you make scenes overly dramatics for the sake of drama, that makes the acting good and intense? Even if it's totally unnecessary and doesn't make sense to the plot? They didn't do any character development and then all of a sudden every seen with two characters talking they put the ominous music in almost to tell the user that they should feel empathy for the character blindly... My parents and I were laughing at the overuse of the same dramatic music used over and over in every scene. The only time that piece of music made sense was at the end of the movie.*SPOILERS HEREIN* And who in their 30s or late 20s takes someone to a highs chool and BREAKS IN? for a date? Great idea. Also the female lead was WAY too hot to be believable that buddy wouldn't be into her and pass up hanging out with her..That movie was comically bad... for so many reasons... I give it a 4 as I still wanted to see what happened even though the director was on vacation during the filming of this.

The film centers on the life of Denny Briggs (Milo Ventimiglia) who we first meet doing stand-up comedy. We then watch the events leading up to this point, including his tragic childhood. His sister Madison (Amanda Aday) is in jail for protecting him from his parents. Denny starts to work at the Miller's restaurant, where they treat him like the family he always wanted. This is contrasted by his actual family when his sister is released from jail and becomes the family he doesn't want. Is blood thicker than water? This is an engaging drama that may not appeal to everyone due to the speed and length. The acting was top notch and the idea of what constitutes a family is challenged. Guide: F-word. Implied sex. No nudity.

Terrible acting, terrible Cohen brothers rip off with an early Luc Besson spice. Don't waste your time... unless candid rip off's are your fetish.
