Alexis Bledel (Gilmore Girls) plays an ambitious but goodhearted scholarship kid who’s obliged to move back in with her laboriously nutty family after failing to land the entry-level publishing job of her dreams. Jane Lynch (Best in Show, The 40-Year-Old Virgin) is given precious little to do as the mom, Michael Keaton phones it in as the loving-but-curmudgeonly dad, and Carol Burnett does a tedious turn as the tragically hip grandmother. Director Vicky Jenson has a sitcom script on her hands and proceeds accordingly. PG-13, 89 min.
