i'm not sure

I wasn't too crazy about this one. I know some people, including my father, loved this movie, but at times I couldn't shake the feeling that it was too dark. Being dark can contribute to a movie sometimes, but not here. Imagine a dark "Married...with children" and it being more of a drama than a sitcom. The family is becoming dysfunctional with the father going after his American dream and developing a sexual interest in one of his daughter's friends, with the daughter doing the same with the boy next door, much to the chagrin of the boy's homophobic father. This is one of those films where you have to see it to develop your own opinion. This was mine. ** out of ****
