In short:
Are we stuck in the roles we currently have and that your life and your decisions has brought you to? That is the question that is being brought up and shown, the step to take and how much it requires to change. Family as a concept is also being brought up, how you choose them and what it means to be close (true). You can do alot worse for a weekend night (with our without company).
In longer:
The cast is overall good, some characters might be a little to overly painted with quirks though it brings a little bit of chaos to the story which is needed.
The underlying message where a paycheck ends up being the symbol for where the lead wants to invest his time, or where he belongs is both highly disturbing (there is no comment about how wrong that is or how inequal the world is becoming as the systems becomes more and more rigged - one note to easily pick up here would be the question if only the rich should be allowed emotion then?) and spot on in the time of far right fascism that is sweeping the world. Though it does pull on some strings and measurement of value (money) is then connected to other characters in its turn to climax the story. Using materialism to climax the emotional side of the story - Yin and Yang shining through.
Pro's
Cast
Quirks
Nifty (and disturbing) manner of developing the subplot
Con's
Some quirks
Materialism/fascism partially unreflected over
The ending; special effect - if that had been done in a realistic manner it would mean you had a clear ending. No matter if she got her sons affection or ended up without the symbol for it and still realised that they still had their relation.
Ending notes:
The itty bitty gritty mobscenes could have set the tone for a darker tale, where sunshine were still to be had that could have made a greter impact. Now it ended up being quite lighthearted. It was still an enjoyable (entertaining) feelgood watch but it could had had quite a punch to it if those darker sides had been in starker contrast.
