Full Plot Details

Annie and Baxter, the adult children of the controversial husband and wife conceptual performance art couple famous for their quirky macabre public performances, have never got over the fact that their parents kept using them during their childhood in their often gory and disturbing satirical public performances. They often clash with their now elderly parents over this and blame them for their problems in their adult life. However, the two become worried when they're told by the police that their parents have gone missing during their trip outside of town. The brother considers the possibility that something horrible might have happened to them, but the sister is convinced that it's just another one of their stupid games or twisted conceptual performances. She convinces him that they should go and look for them themselves.

Movie Reviews

Seattle Times - 9/10 by John HartlWith its opening line, “Imagine you’re dead,” The Family Fang instantly invites its soon-to-be-captive audience on an absorbing, provocative, slightly fantastic path that’s like few others.
Blu-ray.com - 9/10 by Brian OrndorfBateman definitely shows improvement behind the camera, but the effort isn't always as intriguing as the helmer believes.
One Guy's Opinion - 9/10 by Frank SwietekGoes a mite soft at the close, but along the way it's a mostly bracing tale of how the eccentricities of parents can affect their children.
Compuserve - 9/10 by Harvey S. KartenA quirky film that asks, Are these parents monstrous or simply creative?
The Hollywood Reporter - 9/10 by David Rooney[A] smart, tart adaptation of Kevin Wilson's best-selling 2011 debut novel, which thumbs its nose at the clichés of the over-trafficked dysfunctional family genre to dissect the sometimes lifelong quest of children to understand their parents in ways that are funny and bittersweet, poignant and often bracingly dark.
The Film Stage - 9/10 by John FinkBateman has crafted an effective portrait of a dysfunctional family that's not entirely unlike the Bluth Family.
Rolling Stone - 9/10 by Peter TraversKidman and Bateman make a potent team in a provocative film that questions the limits of art in a world that forgets to be human. The result is funny, touching and vital.
NY1-TV - 9/10 by Neil RosenKidman gives one of her best performances in years.
Los Angeles Times - 9/10 by Mark OlsenFor a project that is a showcase for his talents as both actor and director, Bateman never gets too showy on either front, keeping the emotions of the film at something of a restrained simmer.
Chicago Sun-Times - 9/10 by Richard RoeperEven when The Family Fang stretches credulity, we stay with it. Bateman knows how to tell a story.
