In Reply to: Thank you for your points on the movie posted by Analog Scott on February 24, 2007 at 19:37:56:
... the point was that a family can really be greater than the sum of its parts.
Perhaps a parable for humans in this time of wars.
A certain poster here seems to think my description was pretentious.
I thought it was straightforward.
Is this the greatest film I saw in the last year?
No.
But it was a very enjoyable film. A very funny film. And a film that comes back to mind later with little details and this, perhaps, parable.

Follow Ups:
What's pretensious is your slasher attacks when someone disagrees with you. Though assigning real moral weight to a contrived story about an absurd family of self-obsessives is close.

Are you sure that's what you meant to say?
Is there something about morality that only applies to certain people?
A couple of thousand years ago a guy who thought we should all be nice to each other got nailed to some wood for using ordinary people as examples of morality, didn't he?
I guess you are above such considerations as people who are experiencing problems.
Well, I hope your shiny thoughts fulfill you as it seems you have come adrift of reality.
