This movie packs in the laughs. Early in the movie I was afraid it was going to be over-the-top but while it flirted to do so, it never completely did. If you can stretch the realm of reality even just a little, you will like this movie. I only gave it four stars because the children in this movie were just too unbelievable. They acted more like how pre-teens would act when dealing with parents divorcing. An exception would be for the future son-in-law (John Krasinski from The Office), while he hammed it up in parts, his character was pretty funny.
