Message About Alcoholism
2 October 2022
Warning: Spoilers
I saw The Good House, starring Sigourney Weaver-the Ghostbusters movies, Dave; Kevin Kline-Beauty and the Beast_2017, Dave; Morena Baccarin-Gotham_tv, the Deadpool movies and David Rasche-Veep_tv, Men in Black 3.

This is a rom/com with a message in it about alcoholism. Sigourney plays a woman with 2 grown daughters that she supports financially, while also running a real estate business and fighting with other realtors. David plays her ex husband-he left her for another man-that still comes around for social gatherings and to visit with his daughters. Kevin plays Sigourney's old boyfriend that she is trying to reconnect with and Morena is a new resident to the town that becomes her friend. With all her problems, Sigourney tends to drink too much but refuses to admit she is an alcoholic. Her daughters and friends try an intervention but it's unsuccessful due to Sigourney thinking she has it under control. The movie also has Sigourney talking to the audience on occasions, which I found a little distracting.

It's rated R for language and sexual content-including partial nudity-and has a running time of 1 hour & 44 minutes.

It's not one that I would buy on DVD but my wife seemed to like it more than I did, so I guess it would be alright as a rental.
