Read MoreThe first half of the movie was excellent showing life through the eyes of an upper middle class Jewish boy in Los Angles struggling through leaving childhood to become a man. The portrayals of the boy, the parents, the grand parents, the rabbi, the cantor and competing Steins are excellent. The movie adds great tasteful humor in the right places. However, some of themes such as the disconnection between the father and grandfather take over too much of the movie. Also, the movie takes a sudden when the boy decides that his Bar Mitzwah should focus more on meaning and less on the monitary social aspects. While the intent is good the plot goes a little south. All together it is a family movie to be watched by all familys experiencing a Bar Mitwah or a wedding. The theme is very much like a Jewish "My Big Fat Greek Wedding".

The opening scene, of the Titanic Bar Mitzvah, was great. After that, it was slow paced, boring, and completely non-creative. WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes

While i did not find the movie to be hilarious, i enjoyed it very much. I was very pleased to see tradition and reverence win over pomp and circumstance. This movie was a pleasant surprise. WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes

a sometimes charming, completely predictable comedy that had very few laughs. It had a lot of great stars, but everything in the movie just didn't mesh! WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes
