NBC's movies are a bit of hit or miss with me and this one was definitely a miss. It was a step back from his first movie and functions almost as a making of of Kasaba where a movie director goes to his small village to film a movie using his family as actors. Just as he had done in Kasaba. But gone is the wonderful cinematography of the other movie, gone is the wonderful dialogue that explained the family dynamics, we're just left with an ugly, boring and pretentious movie.
