Some funny moments but story ended unsatisfying IMO. Justin Bateman's dry witty rejoinders were the best part of the movie. Dax Shepherd was pretty funny as the shock jock radio personality that Jason worked as his producer. Timothy…

High intensity relationships in this family reunion!

I gave up after a half hour. Found it juvenile, embarrassing and not at all funny.

Since I can't stand Jane Fonda or Tina Fey, I really didn't expect much. It is a tiresome chick flick with endless conversations and little to like in the way of a plot.

What I could relate to is the sibling rivalry and love. I think it is worth the watch.

Jane Fonda is modern again. I prefer not to hear any actor use profanity. It lowers the level of fun, and kids are sponges, and absorb these words very quick (they already know too many!) This dysfunctional family is funny, real, and…

Quite good fun to begin, but incessant talking and little action got a bit much.

A great mix of funny with a just a dash of sadness. If you like dysfunctional family films such as Rachel Getting Married, Buffalo '66, or Silver Linings Playbook, you'll love this dark comedy.

A rare convergence of great acting, great directing, and a splendid screenplay. I watched it two times and I'm a guy (posting on my wife's account) who normally isn't into "romance dramatic comedies", or whatever the heck they're called…

Very sweet. Good cast. Laughs and tears. What more can I ask for?

Like " Almost Christmas 2017," this is a comedy drama about a large family gathering under one roof to observe Shiva, planned for a week. An all star cast to portray a variety of adults working out their present and past relationship…

The story was a good satire, not heavy-handed like The Little Fockers. The acting was somehow appropriate. I liked Jason Bateman's character's considerateness to others, and how that changed as the situation around him changed. I watched…

'Nice', was enjoyable but not enough for me to want to purchase. A bit slow and somewhat, 'been there before'.

Enjoyed it.

Sort of an 'immediate family only' version of the Big Chill - lacking the great sound track. They all seem to lead lives of quite desperation except Adam Driver as Paul the youngest who hasn't realized it yet. Despite my negativity we…

Wide range of reviews here but I liked it a lot. It was quite funny and the actors were well cast. I get bored easily and this one kept my interest.

I'm always unsure of ensemble dramedies. They so often miss that I'm never sure if it's worth the watch. Here is no exception. THIS IS WHERE I LEAVE YOU is trying and failing to be a twenty-first century BIG CHILL. But instead of being a…

This was funny & embarrassing at the same time. My family is so much more messed up. This was a treat.

I loved this movie! It reminded me A LOT of The Family Stone, which is another movie I loved, having both drama and funny parts (quite funny, actually - I'm sorry, but the Rabbi in TiWILY is HILARIOUS! Be sure to watch the bonus feature…

Judging from recent comments, you'll either love it or hate it. I'm siding with the love-its. Many stories are packed in to the movie, but that didn't take away from the main plot. Some situations weren't as funny as they tried to be.…

Very mediocre with a non-mediocre cast. Too bad. I expected more.

Not bad but the film tries to develop too many characters and plot lines in the limited time available. At least no guns and very mild sex scenes.

Confusing it with "Death at a funeral" and "eulogy", but from what I remember good, interesting, a little slow with some wacky/unrealistic attempts at plot twists. I recently sat shiva for grandfather so was rather close for me.

Taking things in stride, this movie was a funny and enjoyable take on family dysfunctionality. Some situations may be hard to believe, but remembering to take things not too seriously helps. I laughed and would ultimately recommend it to…

Too much sexual talk. Too worldly.
