Fathers and Mothers

At first I was caught of guard, because for me "Fathers & Mothers" feels more like a satirical drama than a comedy - as was advertised. But after that I actually truly enjoyed this picture, for it is relatable in the sense that we all have met someone who behaves exactly like the characters in this film. All of the parents' hunger for success and appreciation from others show how much we can sacrifice for our own child and how much pretence we are willing to live in just for the acceptance by a community that we initially didn't want to be part of. I also appreciated how the plot didn't focus solely on the main couple of parents, but it has shown that all of the parents have different issues that are kept hidden for the sake of their place in the school community. I must also highlight the well-written script - the dialogues or monologues flowed effortlessly and smoothly. Eventhough the whole film is not that exceptional or revolutionary, I would still gladly recommend it.
