Demoralizing, disapointing, depressing, some feel like child is neglected, Bland

I think this movie was built up too much by the media. It was kind of boring and I found myself disgusted with most of the characters. I only liked the little girl and her brother. I felt kind of sorry for that family. They didn't seem to resolve their issues.
I agree with you, staceybee. I was really disgusted that the role of grandfather was an Oscar winner. About all he did was buy porn, teach the kid to dance and die.
