Wow! I must say I was blown away by this gem. I found it almost scary how insightful Family Time was. It's not often you watch a film and think, oh, that's just like me or hey, I've been in that situation.
Family Time deals with serious issues without being depressive. I wouldn't label it as comedy though, not by a long shot. Sure, there are funny moments too, just like in real life. But if you just wish for something light to watch, you might want to pass on this one and maybe watch it when you feel up to see something deeper.
If you like to observe people, this is for you for sure. I really enjoyed observing how the characters each dealt with difficult situations.
I found the characters interesting and I really felt for them. You just want to give them a hug!
I was disappointed when the film ended though: I wasn't ready to let go.
