CGiii Comment

Oscar winning Holly Hunter has had a - ridiculously - terrible career.

Oscar winning Jodie Foster turns her hand to directing...not the greatest of decisions with this script.

And, Downey Junior does his usual.

It is another Thanksgiving piece of shit - garnished with a clump of vile characters stuffing themselves into obesity and revealing inappropriate revelations.

Very difficult not to switch off physically...very easy - emotionally.
