Whilst this is nominally a family road movie (small kid had to be at a pageant), the family is about as ordinary as the Addams family and although I can't really say much about them without giving away good parts of the movie, they manage to walk the line between being cuddle and bloodcurdling!
Its well written and the acting is good all round even the kid who manages to be convincing even in the pageant.
The only scene below par is welll I'll call it the dance scene and leave you to make up your own minds...
I have a friend who has already been back to see it again as she thinks its so funny and yesterday people were clapping at the end. It went down very well with lots of out loud laughing even fro me and thta's about unheard of!
It also has the most lovely soundtrack and is worth sitting through the credits for the Sufjan Stevens song No Mans Land right at the end.
