About
You may like this if you want a bittersweet dramedy that mixes friendship, aging, and dark humor around serious choices, somewhat in the spirit of Death at a Funeral; Not for you if end-of-life themes feel too heavy.
Pros: dark humor balance; heartfelt group dynamic; thoughtful moral questions | Cons: heavy subject matter; uneven tonal shifts; slow-moving at times
