Personal Impressions

Review of 'The Atypical Family'

‘The Aytpical Family’ is a quirky fantasy romance drama that explores family and social dysfunction.  The fantasy superpower element is important to the story, but the relationships are at the real core of the message.  I really enjoyed the realistically flawed characters and their clumsy attempts to find healing in the midst of what can be a cold and uncaring world.  The constant leaps back in time did get confusing at points and all of the characters have the potential to be very unlikeable.  But I found the social commentary and the journey each character takes to grow interesting and rewarding. I give ‘The Atypical Family’ a 9 out of 10 ramen.
