Workaholic and sleazy businessman Sam is extremely reluctant to leave New York and go to his father's funeral. When he finally arrives, it becomes apparent that his mother and girlfriend are disappointed in him for "running away" whenever times get too emotional. Soon afterwards, he discovers that his father was sleeping around with another woman, and that Sam actually has a half-sister whom he never knew existed. His father has willed her $150,000 and has left Sam with the task of getting it to her. Frankie is a bartender also wrapped up in work just like her half-brother, and she has had a bad past and has now been left with the job of being a single parent to her troublemaker son, Josh. Josh is eleven years old but curses like a sailor and constantly makes fart jokes and sex jokes, making him popular with the bad kid crowd at school, although behind the act, Josh is depressed and lonely. Now Sam has to find a way to fix the past and reunite his mom, nephew and half-sister together at last, but it won't be easy.
Leave your thoughts about People Like Us.
| Tolucan TimesTony Medley...wonderful acting by Banks, Pine, D'Addario, and Pfeiffer complement the the excellence and tenderness of the story. |
| MovielineStephanie ZacharekThis is a straightforward family comedy-drama, a movie made for adults, and one that actually gives its actors – among them Chris Pine, Elizabeth Banks, Michelle Pfeiffer and Philip Baker Hall – something to do. That's more of a rarity on today's landscape than it should be. |
| The Patriot LedgerAl AlexanderAlex Kurtzman taps his family tree for enough sap to start a treacle factory. |
| ObserverRex ReedThis is a rare feel-good treat that nudges the heartstrings and makes you feel optimistic about the human race. |
| Christian Science MonitorPeter RainerThe most interesting plot development – Frankie starts falling for Sam – is nipped in the bud. Some things even a soap opera won't stoop to. |
| Wall Street JournalJoe MorgensternGoing on too long seems to be the disease of the week; it's certainly what brings this movie down, though the going on here stems from a surfeit of implausible plot that suffocates the main characters and the excellent actors who play them. |
| Village VoiceNick PinkertonUltimately, however, People Like Us is infected with the "life-affirming" pox; this means making a narrative priority of redeeming everyone before adequately explaining them. |
| Richard Roeper.comRichard RoeperSome of the strongest writing in any movie so far this year. |
| Spectrum (St. George, Utah)Bruce BennettExamines the costs of broken, fatherless relationships in subtle but direct ways. Yet it is not a downer of a movie, nor is it superficially cheery. A great cast helps. |
| TheMovieReport.comMichael DequinaThe formidable talent of the cast believably turns the contrivance-navigating characters into (yes) people like us. |
