This was the first time I'd seen this movie, but it's sure to be a Thanksgiving regular from now on. Holly Hunter is dreading heading home to spend Thanksgiving with her dysfunctional family. Her brother, Robert Downey Jr., is certainly a good instigator and gets things rolling from the start. Sometimes these kind of stories work and sometimes the fall short, but this one works for me. The characters push the envelope of believability, but manage to remain realistic enough to follow through their story.
