Moody and weird family drama with some unusual performances from Nicole Kidman and Jack Black. More of a "chick flick," I suppose.

If you like the Squid and the Whale you will find this movie to be similiar. I personally didn't enjoy the movie and was glad it was over. The emotions or conflicts didnt seem real or even normal. It seems like "someone"(director, actors, screenwriters) tried to do or say something here and just didnt. I hated every character except the dog.
