Boundaries

Reluctantly, a struggling single mom (Vera Farmiga), with a awkward 14-year-old son (Lewis MacDougall) expelled from his public school & an estranged 85-year-old pot dealing dad (Christopher Plummer) evicted from his assisted living home, makes a long road trip to her sister (Kristen Schaal) in LA. If you are a dog lover & like quirky character comedies, you may be highly entertained in this hilarious love/hate bonding experience. Christopher Lloyd, Bobby Cannavale, & Peter Fonda are among the crazy customers that we meet along the way. Farmiga & Plummer are outstanding. Dysfunctional families & lovable assholes were never funnier while boundaries are being crossed. Surprisingly, this outrageous road trip is a love letter tribute to writer/director Shana Feste’s own dad & their cross-country journey.

Alien gives it 3½ “illustrated nudes & mange magnet” stars out of 4.
