Curious about additional feedback on this film. Hubby and I saw it yesterday, he said he enjoyed it OK but wouldn't see it again. I didn't fall asleep but was almost bored enough to give a nap a try. LOLOL I don't blame the movie though, think it was the marketing. The previews I saw made it look like a comedy, one synopsis even used the word... farce. If I had a more accurate expectation, perhaps I could have gotten more enjoyment from the film. No-one in our theatre laughed a single time, there were some light-hearted moments but not rising to the level of comedy IMO. It also didn't have a lot of suspense so failed on that level too.

I will put this here to be safe.... Since the father and 2 kids all seem like sociopaths, you can't really care for them. Only mom (Pfeiffer) looked like she was torn between behaving and her instincts.
I went into this movie with a specific expectation and reviews all seemed fairly positive so interested in what others thought.
