A failed writer exploits his douchebag son's death.
Entertaining. If there's nothing else good playing, it's better than not seeing a movie, and you might like it if you like dark satire. It has got to be one of the worst-promoted movies ever, though - a dark indie drama with some black humor, advertised as a zany father-and-son comedy with a lesson to be learned. The poster and trailer are specially designed to ward off anyone who might like it. Half the people in the theater left within the show more first twenty minutes; I wonder if they thought they were going to see that thing with John Travolta in it.
