Ned (Rudd) is a well-meaning idealist who has just been released from prison for dealing marijuana.

I'd actually rate this 3.5 stars. I quite enjoyed it - it is sweet, charming, funny and quirky - but that said, nothing mindblowing and more of a DVD than a cinema classic. Paul Rudd (hard to recognise but still handsome with all that facial fuzz!) is really quite delightful. The 3 actresses who play his sisters are all good value - there are a lot of laughs, it's quite left of centre, and really very charming and lighthearted. A feelgood movie.

Really enjoyed this movie. Heartwarming and a nice depiction of unconditional love, which our human race seems to have lost lately !

Reasonable for a 'chick flick' i guess, but never gets beyond pedestrian pace.

A feel good movie, nostalgic to watch about a good natured brother who's honesty always gets him and his family into trouble.
