Our Review...
This movie is full of drama and comedy. I liked to see Sam's character evolve. He starts off being selfish and all about himself but by the end of the movie he cares about the rest of his family. I kept wanting Sam (Chris Pine) to tell Frankie (Elizabeth Banks) that he was her brother but he wouldn't tell her and I knew she would be mad when he finally did tell her. But then she forgave him and everything worked out. I loved the ending when they are watching the home movie filmed by their dad. That was a pretty cool ending. You'll have to watch the movie to see what I mean. This is a good movie.
There are some pretty good special features too. It was cool to find out that when they were shooting the Taco scene a lot of those lines were made on the spot by Chris Pine and Elizabeth's real childhood. I liked watching the story behind People like us. The bloopers are always fun to watch too.
