    let’s make this brief. i found this film tedious, irritating, nonsensical, hystrionic, bogus, contrived and self indulgent. do you allow your 19 year old daughter to take naked baths with your 10 year old son, while you sit by the tub chain smoking and chatting about … whatever? are you willing to live by a freeway, and wall up your windows and doors to block out the noise, because the mother of the household “can’t live anywhere else?” well then, fire up this dvd, it’ll be just like home for y’all.

    for those of us who don’t marry our cousins, the murky mixture of symbolism, fantasy, eroticism and je-m’en-foutisme stewed up as a plot is unmotivated by character, circumstance or thematic coherence. yes, i get it, the freeway is the symbol of encroaching technology, the family a symbol of the simple(ton) life, their travails the struggle of the common man … but the ending, with the family breaking out of their walled up home and wandering dazed and drained along the freeway is both opaque and infuriatingly empty. you’ll laugh, you’ll cry, you’ll pound your head on the pavement, screaming “why the hell did i watch that thing?”
