Sarah Silverman as Laney was amazing. She portrayed the bleakness of the character so well. Even the guy that played her husband and her kids did a good job too.
One thing that I didn’t really get was whether or not her husband knew about her drug addiction/cheating ways before she woke him up. It’s hard to tell because her husband seems to sweep the issue under the rug and doesn’t want to talk about and he seems to have the “can’t you just be happy” approach to whatever mental issues Laney was going through (why she was taking pills in the first place).
I do like how it ended (Laney walking out of the house) because it seemed more realistic than her staying at home and everything being okay. When it comes to what lead Laney to have a bloody face, I think that wasn’t really necessary; she could have just fallen down a flight of stairs after she had sex with that guy in the bar.
There were a few parts of the movie that when it happened, I thought it wasn’t necessary, however, as a whole, it did work. That’s not to say that this movie is groundbreaking in any way.
