About

If you enjoy offbeat, bittersweet comedies about reinvention, friendship, and messy family dynamics—with big pop-music moments—this should land well; Not for you if you want light, modern humor or purely feel-good vibes like The Castle.

Pros: big laughs; ABBA-fueled energy; heartfelt friendship | Cons: dark, bittersweet turns; some dated humor; many unlikeable characters
