Watch This Is Where I Leave You For Free

Too much of everything

Excellent but underrated film

This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

A family are forced to spend a week together to honor their deceased father.I found this on Blu-ray in Pound Land so I was not expecting much.I was very pleasantly surprised. The siblings squabble and barb to great comedic affect. The characters were engaging and quite often charming. There is a lot of great talent here. I was most surprised by Tina Fey who so great that I now struggle to disengage her performance from her real life.Now this film probably does tug at one too many heart strings and near the end it does get a bit "Dawson's Creek" but I didn't mind for a minute.This is not laugh-out-loud but is a great, simple story; heart warming, humorous and very enjoyable.

I gave this a second try because there are so many good actors, but barely got through half of it. This is part of the Hollywood campaign to normalize vile behavior and debase traditional people. I love a good debasement if its funny but this was all vile and no comedy. Since I could not imagine any real family saying these things or feeling these sentiments, I had to believe it was someone jumping on the drain train just trying to put the most offensive and repulsive lines and stories in they could think of. Can anyone imagine anyone of these stars letting a kid poop anywhere he wants in his mobile porta potty no matter the visitor? These are really vomit worthy jokes and people I want nothing to do with. Don't worry, downloaded it for free, so no one profited from my mistake.

As you all know I share ratings with following sequence: rating = number of stars, 6=1(poor), 7=2(average), 8=3(good), 9=4(very good), and 10=5(excellent). Now I will tell you why I have been rated this as poor.The movie portrays a story where a person temporarily gets into relationship only to forgive a member in his past that got into relationship with somebody else. Further the old couple would again get into relationship after everything clears. Ideally this makes the story weak. Only psychiatrists would know if it would work. Ideally the past companion is to be forgiven without making any blundered choices. Thus I rate the movie as poor.

The actual factor any audience wants in a perfect movie is its ability to hold them from the very beginning. Either it be the modern society cliché or be the long lasting parenting this movie excels in every part. Gearing for the dad's funeral and reuniting the emotions certainly entertained me. The cast is flawless and I found every part should be clearly praised. This will certainly boost up for some family golden moments. The brothers and their differences, the eldest one being not so funny and the youngest one being the most naughty is what we all expect from the family pack, but the arrangements of their characters and the way they are presented will not leave you being bored at any instance. It has done a decent job in handling the old days, old days link-ups and has exactly shown their effects in the future when actually you need those to be back again. But I laughed hard in some scenes of Church or even more. So, the perfect blend of emotions, comedy, reality inside the family makes this movie a must watch.
