Perfectly capturing the gist and patois of that obnoxious sect of all-American upper-middle sports dads and militantly PC moms, Jeff Garlin's laid back satire is at its most inspired when it breaks with plot altogether, which is most of the time, and relinquishes itself to the easygoing delight of spontaneity among long-serving comedy greats finding and delving into a notch of sharp naturalistic comic wit together.

I laughed a lot. A few times every scene. I don't care that the movie is incredibly simple if it makes me laugh this much.

A ton of comedic talent here in a film that doesn't really go anywhere or do anything, which makes it really hard to rank. I could watch these people improv their characters for hours, but it would be mindless pleasure.

Don't let Garlin's previous works foot you. Curb Your Enthusiasm, I Want Someone to Eat Cheese With, and his stand-up are much much better. This film just confuses me. Its not really bad enough for me to blast it. It mainly just disappointed me how unfunny it was. Like cdub12 I'm left wondering why Garlin decided to make a film of this nature, or how so many talented comedians can agree to film a screenplay with absolutely no comedic punch.

Not anything special, but a solid way to spend 90 minutes. It doesn't flow all that well, which means it doesn't really work as a movie the way Clear History does, for example, but if you like Garlin, it's a lot of fun to see him play off some great improvisers. Bob Odenkirk is especially brilliant, but I know that every word that comes out of that man's mouth is gold, so no surprise there.

It wasn't really a bad movie, necessarily. It just wasn't funny. It seemed like most of the lines were improved, and they just didn't really hit the mark. The direction and screenplay were sloppy at best, and I guess I just don't really understand why it exists.

It's quirky and funny and filled with familiar faces. Enjoyable.
