What a great movie about families; for families. It was clever, thoughtful, funny and sad. Great performances from all the cast; especially Robert DeNiro.

Was the acting superb? Absolutely, particularly from Annette Bening. Was the theme of the film timely and enlightening? Check and check. Was it a quality indie film? Yup. Was I bored stiff watching it? Oh goodness, yes. If I want to watch day-to-day life play out in all its inanity, I'll just live it instead of watching it on screen.

What we have here is an interesting portrait of a modern family,which like it or not is just one form of togetherness that is here to stay.However the subject here is about the difficulties inherent in working at and maintaining a marriage and the attendant problems in raising children rather than it being a platform for debate about same-sex marriage. The acting is finely nuanced and is of Academy Award caliber. Benning,Moore and the very affable slacker,Mark Ruffulo capture their roles effectively. Benning's tightly wound,control-freak doctor was so belivable that I found myself almost despising her at times even though in the end she was all-too-human.The children were people to be proud

Good movie but scenario has weaknesses that bring some confusion to the story. End of movie led me to believe that the director was out of inspiration.
