Just a whole lot of fun! Characters are great, music and dancing are fanciful, funny lines and family dynamics, and even some touching moments. Couldn't ask for anything better!

Film by John Turturro that is part musical, part comedy with most fantastically assembled cast one can come up with. Set in New Jersey-like area, this is a story of a working class family with three adult daughters at the moemnt that the husband and father or the family (James Gandolfini) is caught cheating on his wife (Susan Sarandon). The rage that transpires from his wife, is like a virus that catches on to all his daughters and even his own mother.
However, it is Kate Winslet who steals the show. She is the seductress that prefers emotionally unavailble men and they turn her on for as long as they are not in love with her. Once they do fall in love, the affair is over. Winslet has so much fun in this movie that it is hillarious to listen to her speak with ehr British accent, make love (to Gandolfini's character) and get into a cat fight with no ther woman ut Susan Sarandon! In one scene, she is thrown into a water by Gandolfini's character and she looks like a mermaid with her flaming red hair, beautifully sculpted face and most amazing costume made up of Agent Provocateour underwear.
It is a funny movie with really cool choreography and mix of musical scores. Even the people who are not fans of musicals (myself included) will enjoy this goofball movie.

This is truly a wonderful piece of entertainment. Guided well by the Coen brothers, John Turturro offers us this gem of a "home-made musical" filled with a stunning cast. It's clear these actors had a ball performing and this infects the viewers world.
If you enjoy great acting, infectious storytelling, and complete inane seemingly non-sequiturs that take you on a merry-go-round of enjoyment: watch this film.
