Cllassic Steve Martin, sadly remembered for that cowboy birthday party scene. Trust me, there is more. If anything, this is an underrated Drama. New parents (like me) will find plenty to love, and older parents will need a new pair of pants ready. Very funny, sad, realistic and serious. The cast are teriffic throughout, look for an especially young Keanu Reeves in the role he was born for!!! We are all this dysfunctional to some degree,..... right? Fun, sad and ultimately very entertaining!

MCT:June 6, 2008Heartwarming and sidesplitting like whoa. Oddly enough, one of the best lines came from Keanu Reeves: "You know, Mrs. Buckman, you need a license to buy a dog, to drive a car - hell, you even need a license to catch a fish. But they'll let any butt-reaming asshole be a father."

You might have to meet it half way with the family dynamics cliches, but hey, for all I know they wern't cliches when this nearly 20-year old film was released. But what is surprising are the moments that ring true. I really felt for Dianne Wiest's character during her date with her little speech about not being old enough to be a grandmother. "I went to Woodstock, for Christ's sake!" What was most unexpected was the confrontation with the black sheep son with a gambling problem. There's a moment of revealing desperation and pity in his refusal to be like his brother. The final montage scene in the hospital is touching too, albeit a little distantly. Oh, and I definetly wasn't expecting contemplation of abortion and a very explicit reference to oral sex. O_O
