Product Description
Lenny Rubins, (Timothy Spall The King's Speech) an up-tight lawyer, has to put his dream retirement on hold when his ailing mother (Honor Blackman Goldfinger) emotionally blackmails him into reuniting his estranged children for a Jewish holiday. They may be peas from the same pod, but in Lenny s eyes, his grown up children are certainly not from the same planet: a survival-of-the-fittest/control-freak hard-nosed capitalist (James Callis Battlestar Galactica), an outspoken argumentative eco-warrior committed to the cause (Rhona Mitra Underworld: Rise of the Lycans) an outer worldly Buddhist Monk; and to cap it all a bible bashing born-again Rabbi! They might not see eye to, quarrel, fight, and even be starting a war in Africa but they are still family and it is going to take a whole lot of soul searching and sacrifice for all involved to come together in this heart warming, comic, family drama that will have you thinking of your own family with a smile.

From the trailer I expected that this could be a real good film with lots of humour! And I wasn't disappointed, it really is a highly enjoyable film with a interesting story, good actors and it moves just in the right speed ;-)! I highly admire Honor Blackman, despite her age she still is a great actress!!

I must say I really enjoyed this film. I didn't know what to expect but could really relate to it coming from a family with a few siblings who are all very different.
The sign of a good film is if you care about the characters and I must say there was a couple of tear jerking moments for my wife and I.
Well worth a watch.

Reuniting the Rubens -
It is good, clean fun! Just what we need at this time of the year, when family members might need some help to get on with each other!

Different take on the british comedy genre
It's nice to see a film which deals with certain issues which you do not necessarily see in comedies these days.
