Nicole Kidman, Christopher Walken, Jason Bateman, and Kathryn Hahn in The Family Fang (2015)
Adult siblings Baxter (Jason Bateman) and Annie (Nicole Kidman), scarred from an unconventional upbringing, return to their family home after an unlikely accident. When their parents (Christopher Walken and Maryann Plunkett) -- performance artists famous for elaborate public hoaxes -- suddenly go missing under troubling circumstances, Baxter and Annie investigate. Unsure whether it's foul play or just another elaborate ruse, nothing can prepare them for what they discover.

    • Trivia
      Nicole Kidman's father Antony Kidman visited her on set in New York. However, tragically, his visit was the last time they saw each other, before he passed away in September 2014. In a scheduling coincidence, the film held its world premiere on September 14th, 2015, exactly the date on which he passed away the year earlier.
    • Goofs
      When she arrives home there is 5 messages on phone. She listens only to 4, ignoring the last one. It could be vital.

    The Family Fang: its best Quality is Originality, I guess.
    This is a very good work of fiction, well represented on the screen by Jason Bateman (who starred and directed it) and his stellar cast.

    It's the story of a unusual family: you will find the story truly original, not only in its premises or in the sequence of events but also because in the end you'll be left without any moral teaching: everything will seem possible and acceptable.

    I found it interesting but, to be sincere, not really catching or entertaining. If you are looking for a Comedy I'm afraid you'll be disappointed. If you think you are going to watch a drama you'll probably find it poorly moving. If you want to see something original, on the contrary, you could be satisfied I guess.
