Wish I Was Here (2014)
Braff is an out-of work actor with a patient provider-wife & a couple of kids. His dad decides to pull the tuition cash he's been using to pay for the children’s private school because he’s dying and wants to use it for his treatment. Fair enough. So Braff takes on the kids’ schooling in what I think was supposed to be a free-spirited way (camping trips, wig shopping, pool plastering), all the while carrying around an institutional-sized “swear jar” full of cash to finance their exploits.
Just ugh. It was forced and boring as hell. When they “insisted” a man take a sexual harassment seminar “seven times” while also getting him fired for giving voice to his fictional half-boner, it was just one more thing in this movie that doesn’t reflect life at all. Has Braff ever met real people? Hated every single bit of this. Every. Single. Bit.
