First, thank you for adding this film to be discussed. Now why hasn't anyone else seen it and discussed it. Selfish as this may be, I shall review the film. 

 

the comedic acting from these mostly new cast members is spot on. The developments are always interesting, and the direction the film takes keeps me guessing as to what will happen next. anything can happen. someone could die (what do we do with the body?) or the place could be surrounded with a negotiator on scene? tv crews? anything could happen. A new relative arrives and adds new insight into the political scheme.. anything.

 

The comparisons on how polarized our society is becoming, (beginning way before Trump took office, but inspired by him none the less) are obvious. and part of that made the film enjoyable for me.
