"This is Where I Leave You" doesn't provide many surprises. It's a pretty standard "repressed family reunion," albeit with a very good cast that doesn't quite have the material it deserves. Jason Bateman is Judd Altman, who learns of his father's death just days after catching his wive (Abigail Spencer) and boss (Dax Shepard) sleeping together. Judd returns home, coming back into contact with his sister Wendy (Tina Fey), who's also trapped in a loveless marriage, Phillip (Adam Driver), his younger brother dating an older woman, and Paul (Corey Stoll), who is having trouble conceiving with his wife Tracy (Connie Britton). The cast is rounded out by Jane Fonda as the mother of the Altmans and Rose Byrne and Timothy Olyphant as two of the kids' hometown love interests.
