About
You’ll like this warm, slightly satirical workplace-and-family comedy if you enjoy middle-age upheaval and heartfelt relationship messiness; Not for you if you want a typical rom-com, action-heavy pacing, or a consistently satisfying conclusion like Dan in Real Life or Crazy, Stupid, Love.
Pros: feel-good family focus; sharp humor; solid performances | Cons: uneven tone; some find it dull; ending may disappoint
