I don't know how people rated this movie great. I didn't find any part of it to have dark humour either. It was slow paced, boring and depressing. The only credit I'll give it is that it was well acted. Just not sure who wants to waste over an hour of their life watching a self centred, horrible womens day to day struggle of having to live without millions and dragging her poor son down with her. Horrible depressing movie with zero entertainment value as far as Im concerned.

I love Michelle Pfeiffer but this is the biggest load of old rubbish I've ever watched, There's no point, nothing happens, acting is appalling, dialogue is awkward and nonsensical at times. It's not even a film, it's just utter rubbish.

Fabulously dark, guiltily hilarious, perfectly cast...there's nothing to not like about this film. If the poor reviews here reveal anything about American culture it's simply that it is no longer capable of appreciating anything above the ordinary, anything that isn't completely spelt out for them...anything that makes them think. This is a work of true art. It's nuanced, carefully paced and structured with purpose. I was expecting the worst after reading these dumb reviews but I was rewarded with a very special experience. Pretty much everything is perfect...the acting, the writing, the cinematography...and the cat. The ending is as it should be. Highly recommended!

Yes, Michelle Pfeiffer can act.. And the cat was very intelligent.. otherwise a truly meandering, meaningless, but especially pretentious, indulgent, dishonest, narcissistic waste of time.. No plot, no believable characters, no character arc, a true waste of money and time. I am sure the director and writer just LOVED themselves for producing this homage to their own imagined brilliance.

To sum it up ... It was just slow. Couldn't really find the "Comedy" or the "Drama" .. just very different genre of its own. The cast was okay ,, I mean Michelle Pfeiffer was great and Lucas Hedges was really good .. but the script itself was slow and disconnected and more importantly very long .. It do believe if it was instead of 2 hours they re-edited and re montage it , it would have looked a bit more alive , and maybe we would have actually felt the comedy or some intense drama .. but it wasn't so we didn't. I give it 5 stars for the cast, but it gets 1 for the writing and directing ... Now is it recommended !! I don't think anyone would like to sit 120 minutes of this .. so here I give you a heads up.

I found this good adaptation to the book off bear but laugh aloud funny. It helped to have read the book first, but I so enjoyed the aspect of a collection of lost souls all happily living together. A home for misfits everywhere. Michelle Pfieffer exudes elegance and determination to set her own story and path despite the world around her. Not brilliant but an enjoyable retreat.

No spoiler here, but the scene with the Parisian waiter would single-handedly redeem a much weaker movie. For this one it was the cherry on the sundae.

Director: Azazel Jacobs and Writer: Patrick DeWitt bring to us a charming film without pretense. The characters are who they are! Frances and her son Malcolm, Mme Reynard, Madeleine, Julius, etc. Each one enchanting! I've watched this film three times and each time I loved it. The plot is both real and mystical at the same time. The photography is beautiful, the situations beliveable, and no character out shines any other. Bravo!
