Four grown siblings (Bateman, Driver, Fey and Stoll) are forced by their blunt mother (Fonda) to fulfill their recently deceased father's wish… sitting shiva, which would require them to be under the roof of their childhood home for an entire week while people come to express their condolences. This results in the five of them confronting things they've been hiding from each other and themselves. Ultimately delivers the hilarious consequences the cast of its caliber is expected to deliver; however, there is a healthy amount of drama that is worked into the plot also. Worth the ticket price and the hour-forty-five minutes, but the resolution too easily justifies the avoidable imperfections of the characters we're supposedly rooting for.
