David, a struggling comedy writer fresh off from breaking up with his boyfriend, moves from New York City to Sacramento to help his sick mother. Living with his conservative father and much-younger sisters for the first time in ten years, he feels like a stranger in his childhood home. As his mother’s health declines, David frantically tries to extract meaning from this horrible experience and convince everyone (including himself) that he's "doing okay.”

This is a movie that deals with alot of common themes; family life, difficult news, dealing with sexuality, life and death. And it does them quite well. Jesse Plemmons is rather good as the main character, and Molly Shannon is excellent as the mum. It was very funny in 2 or 3 places but the constant product placement got on my nerves - maybe that's how the movie was financed, but every 5 minutes there was a mention of pepsi, jc penney or applebee's etc It will not break any cinematic moulds but is ok for a gentle nights movie viewing. 6.9 cup cakes out of 10.

Not much of a Drama, comedy. if there was a category for normal life, this would have been it. Shows the life of a family dealing with the mother having cancer and the emotions everyone goes through. For those that never thought about or lived this type of situation, its eye opening but no wow factor. It was hard to watch without thinking of something else in my life, but enjoyable. Not a great story line, mediocre acting, (I do think Jesse Clemons held this movie together, but I do think his range could have been better. This movie reminds me of the move Stepmom-1998. That was a much better pick.

Other People is fairly well directed but I found the script to be very up and down. Jesse Plemons was great one minute and then weak the next. Molly Shannon was really solid but she never really got a chance to really showcase her ability. This is decent movie that could've been great.
