Really good watch, could watch again, and can recommend. Big fan of Joey King ("The Act"), and Kate Hudson ("How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days"), and even Zach Graff ("Scrubs") and Josh Gad ("Frozen") give a great performance. Unfortunately, while it has comedic elements, it's not a terribly funny movie. It's more like taking a serious situation and presenting it to someone in a very palatable, if obvious fashion. This is a "life is hard", mixed with "tragic family event" tropes with some nice multi-threading for sub plots. While it's a nice story of pushing through adversity, it's still a heavy story, a sad story, but (like in real life) it's about getting past the bad to grow the good.
