I agree with Graham Clarke
"Nicole Kidman, Jennifer Jason Leigh and Jack Black all...turn in great performances. There's no doubt about that. The thing is when all is said and done, watching dysfunction families is not necessarily riveting viewing. At some point you ask yourself, do I really need to see this? "Margot at the Wedding" leaves you with very little other than the performances. Watching people act out is not art. There really has to be more than this."
I found it a time waster, and did not really want to try to "psychoanalyze "the characters' crazy emotional gyrations.
