If this is your "typical" Jewish family getting together for a Seder, then I am glad my family isn't "typical". This movie was an excuse to show neurotic Jewish people sitting around table and they saved it to show at Passover. My friends and I are all Jewish and we saw nothing we could relate to in the movie. Period. Even if the throw the word "matzoh" around another 100 times, and throw in some Biblical passages about Elijah, this movie does NOT represent anyone or anything I have ever seen at a Seder. C'mon folks. Please save your money and see something you can stay awake to. I know I couldn't. The only redeeming aspect of this movie is the occasionally whimsical Klezmer music combined with some Rasta. I read all the reviews before I went to see it and thought I was going to be entertained. Instead, I took a nap and for that, I didn't have to spend money in the middle of the afternoon. Attend a real Seder. This (to me) was nothing but slapstick with a Haggadah thrown in for good measure. Terrible.
