Flick Pick: Home for the Holidays
Whether you need to steel yourself for your own Thanksgiving dinner or want to remind yourself that it's not that bad, this holiday dramedy hits the spot.

It's the perfect nightmare of a Thanksgiving reunion, from Holly Hunter's attempts to figure out her life, to Robert Downey Jr.'s infuriating younger-brother hijinks, to Steve Guttenberg's (yes, Steve Guttenberg!) defensive, annoyed, heartfelt efforts to stick up for his family.

This holiday, get caught up in somebody else's family drama and see how much you have to be thankful for!
