RottenTomatoes Score: 67% (6.3/10)

Box Office: Having opened in just two cinemas in the U.S., Todd Solondz's latest dark comedy has made $27,020 to date, so there's absolutely nothing to see here.

Verdict: If you're a fan of Solondz's dark brand of comedy, then this one will be an easy sell, especially with a cast as terrifically eclectic as Greta Gerwig, Danny DeVito, Julie Delpy and Ellen Burstyn. If you hated Happiness or Welcome to the Dollhouse, then why even bother?

Yes, it's intentionally outrageous to the point that some may find it to be trying too hard, but the hilarious nonchalance with which the dialogue is delivered is itself masterful comedy at work.

Not all the vignettes hit with the same force, but it's easy to see why such a distinct cinematic voice continues to attract such illustrious casts. Just don't eat while you're watching it.
