Absorbing, Great acting, Great writing, Relevant, Intense

See it if you like dysfunctional family drama with a capital D: engaging characters; themes including alcoholism, mental illness, and codependency

Don't see it if you can't deal with heavy themes, foul language and dysfunctional relationships. You like light hearted comedy and musicals.

Don't see it if Issues of untreated addiction & mental weakness disturb you or hit too close to home. This is powerful/uncomfortable but also funny.

See it if you appreciate complicated, messy characters.
