About This Movie

The film meanders through the Dooley clan's antics as they celebrate Meemaw's milestone birthday, showcasing a variety of eccentric relatives that feel like they could leap off the screen. The pacing is reflective of TV movies from the era—slow but with bursts of energy during the family games.
