Not hearing of this film at the time of its release, or any of the actors. But seemingly coming across it by chance. Had relatively no expectations and it was a decent enough watch for its kind.
Now this is a categorized as a fairly dark comedy with some dramatic parts and several sport (baseball) analogies- filled with black and white flashbacks scenes with narration.
The pacing is solid although drags at times and has the certain feel of a television sitcom. The plot sounds like a rehash of a typical comedy/drama series. It's simple but entertaining for the characters. The film also doesn't feel low budget as the acting is good and the set designs are well done.
Of course, lead Uncle Nick is the star but the performance by Valerie was captivating enough as the young step niece teasing Nick throughout. The ending is somewhat of a twist and not entirely predictable which adds another layer. Perhaps a hidden gem given the amount of votes.
