    A cut above the average Aussie crazy-clan comedy.

    Although not without a certain cheeky, outrageous charm, Chris Kennedy's film isn't nearly as much fun as it seems to think it is.

    McClelland is a joy to watch, even when the story strains too hard for lovable whimsy, which happens much too often.

    The only thing more inexplicable than the loathsome score is the story's determination to impregnate all its major female characters. Fuggedaboudit.
