Everything Must Go

Imagine if everything that could possibly go wrong in your life, does so in a single day? This is Nick's mid-life crisis. He loses his job (fired by a younger boss, too!), gets home only to find all his possessions on the front lawn and his wife has kicked him out. What is a man to do? Nick (Will Ferrell) decides to booze it up and camp outside with all his life's possessions, of course.

Along the way he becomes friends with a lonely boy, reconnects with an old high school mate and builds a relationship with a helpful new neighbour. I am not a Will Ferrell fan, but his portrayal of Nick will leave you thinking "aw..." for days after watching it. All together now: "Aw..."

Rating: 4 outta 5
