The Oranges (2011), Julian Farino
4/5
Darkly hilarious, this is a great quirky family drama about two interwoven families. A great combination of actors who play off each other with chemistry and authenticity. It is the great cast including Hugh Laurie (House), Allison Janney (The West Wing), Oliver Platt (The Big C), Katherine Keener (Being John Malkovich) and Alia Shawkat (Arrested Development) that really make this a highly enjoyable film. Combined with the great writing, it is witty, quirky and just laugh out loud funny in a dark and dry kind of way. It's also a pretty fun christmas movie about realistic family dramas.
