    What looks to be a heartwarming (alternative) family drama takes a darker turn and leaves several loose ends unresolved. Overall, it was well acted, with likeable characters, and a superb performance by Annette Bening in particular.

    I cannot think of a more perceptive movie that takes a funny and honest look at a marriage. In fact, I don't recall ever seeing a movie that deals with marriage, most are about the wedding or the divorce, this movie is something special. Funny and touching, with wonderful performances by Annette Bening, Julianne Moore and Mark Ruffalo. The movie has sharp witty dialogue and characters that are real and relatable. One of the true treasures of 2010.
