When Sam's father dies, he reluctantly returns home. In order to fulfill his father's final wishes, again reluctantly, he discovers a secret family unbeknownst to him. He becomes friendly with them - without identifying himself. When we're introduced to Sam he's a fast-talking, big-time salesman who is always in and out of hot water, sort of on-the-edge and loving it, but this new information about his father really throws him for a loop.
I really liked this movie. I've never been particularly impressed with Chris Pine, but he did a super job with this role, as did the young man playing his nephew, Elizabeth Banks, and Michelle Pfeiffer, who played his mom.
"Inspired by true events."
