Review

A man, Royal, have not seen his family in many years. He tells them that he is going to die soon. Before his death he wants to fix relationships to his two sons, wife and their adopted daughter.

Characters of the family are somehow strange in a good way - or maybe they are just personal - and they all have things to fix int heir life, so the father is not the only one who needs to change things in his life what is broken and messed up.

This was a very funny comedy what is very different than many others. Its style is more laconic and the whole atmosphere is absurd in many situations what gives this movie an unique feel.

I liked this.
