a sweet, modest, unremarkable film, propped up by seasoned actors playing quirky and "real."

The potentially one-joke premise is given depth, complexity, darkness and pathos by the offbeat execution and the honest performances.

Cast and crew seem committed to making a simple point: "unhealthily close" relationships can be enriching. And the result is a movie that feels both small and deep.

If you shied away from “Cyrus” because you were worried that Reilly was stuck in a rut, especially since it was released a few years after “Step Brothers” (2008), don’t be. It is so much better, far more relatable, and realistic.
