Memorable, crazy movie

The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

I saw this movie before reading any reviews, and I thought it was very funny. I was very surprised to see the overwhelmingly negative reviews this film received from critics.

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

..."Jimmy Christmas", still laughing, oh my, oh my... This movie does so much more for educating American youth, 2015, on life than anything you can find on cable these days :-) There's hope for the future after all ha ha ha, keep up the good work, let art resemble life, not Republican knuckleheads resemble life. Greetings from Denmark :D ... still laughing. Well, have to do the 10 lines, so let me elaborate: Anything coming out of America, these recent years, which points at critical human self awareness, comes in handy: Satire, art and humanism all points at evolving mankind, so praise You, fellow human, Coley Sohn... Life's great

This movie was watchable, but so unbelievably non realistic. Most parts I was rooting for the daughter hoping that she would stand up for herself. This movie was boring, stereotyping and just so awful. The characters were not well portrayed not to fail to mention the plot was a big snore fest. Terrible acting. The story line itself was just ridicules in the sense of the main characters flaw of not standing up for herself properly that she gets walked on over and over again. Who's going to believe an eight teen year old is going to let that many people treat her like crap and not eventually say something, do something? Blah! Boring, senseless movie.

If you're in the mood for a light hearted, feel good comedy with some not half bad acting, please don't subject yourself to this. Rather watch Silver Linings or even Freaky Friday. I read a review about this which scored it 6/10…. What??! The story is about as complicated as a paper clip, the acting is REALLY impressive. Impressive that they managed to get Gunn, Bader and Osment to agree to make this. Wow… and Rickards over does the "home schooled overly protected daughter" If you have 1.5 hours to kill and NOTHING else to do while having the urge to see Osment prance around (Which is about the best acting in the movie) then please subject yourself to this.

From the minute it began this quirky movie had me, hearkening back to other Indy greats like "Welcome to the Dollhouse." The cast was amazing. Stand-outs for me in the supporting cast were Haley Joel Osment as the uber-gay trailer trash boyfriend with a heart of gold, and the ailing always coughing Jenny O'Hara as the tough as nails grandma with (you guessed it) a heart of gold. However, the understated performance by Ashley Rickards stole the show. The writing is smart, funny and current which is a huge compliment in today's overly-hip-trying-too-hard environment, and Sohn's directorial debut in a feature length movie is to be applauded. The relationships are real, dysfunctional, but loving. The poignant ending of the movie left me wanting more.
