I've seen so many sentimental comedies, that it's hard for me to find a truly original story. This one is no exception: apart from the "twins" idea, it resembles other stories about family relationships I've already seen before.
But who cares: the script is wonderfully written, without smudges, and it tackles serious issues with taste. No character is a parody. And the actors are so brilliant and into their characters, that you can suspend your disbelief for an hour and a half.
I truly hope I'll see Bill Hader and Kristen Wiig together again, and I hope Luke Wilson will also get the recognition he deserves.
Just brilliant. I bought the DVD, to watch it again in its original version.
