It's the summer of 2003. Jamie Winkle (Joey King) and her family are sent into chaos when her dying grandmother Dotty (June Squibb) unveils a series of revelations. Baby Jamie had been baptized by Dotty without telling her Jewish mother Shira (Andrea Savage). Jamie is taken with Luke who is training to be a priest. March has an unrequited crush on her. Her best friend Emily is a fast girl from L.A.

This is a relatively standard coming of age dysfunctional family comedies about a hormone filled teen. This one is about a girl which comes with its own issues. I struggle with Jamie's likeability. She's struggling to know right from wrong and sex and all the big questions. Joey King is a hot girl looking for sex. It's never quite as funny as a geeky guy desperately trying to lose his virginity. Guys look stupid and the audience laugh at them. It's tougher to make girls struggle to have sex. The best that can be achieved is the girls having bad sex and Jamie isn't even doing that. There are still laughs to be had in this movie but whoever this Becca Gleason is, she has to figure out how to get more humor out of her comedies.

This is a comic coming of age film with quirky humor.

On her death bed, Grandma Dottie (June Squibb) decides to be brutally honest with the family members one at a time. She tells her favorite son, Ned ( Paul Scheer) he had a different father. Her daughter Hope (Erin Darke) she confesses to having locked her in a closet as a child which is why she is claustrophobic. Her grandson Dylan (Logan Medina) she lets know he is a homosexual, and to get "fixed." However, the film centers around Jamie (Joey King). She tells Jamie she was secretly baptized (mother is Jewish) and the secret to life is to be able to give great oral sex...the same advice her friend Emily (Kelly Lamor Wilson) told her, but she ignored.

These epiphanies set off a chain of events that made for eventful summer of laughs.

I found the film to be funny. You had to love Dottie and I wish she had lived a little longer. Seems all the kids were involved in heavy underage drinking and no one was batting an eye.

Guide: F-word. Sex. No nudity. Contains anti-Semitic remarks.

Bryan Adams references aside, this actually could be understood a different way, but I won't go into that. I'd rather let the grandma do that "Talk" for and to you. Now the movie has some sexual talk, which may be something that may cause some people to be completely outraged - especially in America. But if you are above those things, you do get a comedy about a dysfunctional family that actually works quite well.

Especially because of the lead performance. Not sure if you are aware of Joey King, but she really is a natural. Her mixture of innocence and beautiful exterior combined with her acting talent really do the trick here (and in other movies she stars in). And it's imperative, especially considering what she is able to do. Not that this is an admission of guilt or is supposed to free others of guilt for what they do. But if you look to be offended this movie gives you plenty of opportunities! So try to check that at the door before watching the movie - otherwise you won't be able to have fun with watching this. And you can have plenty of that ... no pun intended
