Action packed.

Distinctly average.

A surprising look in to the stresses of raising a new born baby. This realistic drama is sharp and witty, as expected from Diablo Cody. I found myself quietly chuckling at some moments and nodding along in sympathy during others. Both Charlize Theron and Mackenzie Davis steal the show. As a parent of a twelve-month old, it was refreshing to see parenthood portrayed in a realistic way.

Even though I knew the ending, the final 15 minutes, where Alex makes his ascent, is truly nerve-racking.
