April Burns (Katie Holmes) thinks that it is finally time to get her extremely dysfunctional family together for Thanksgiving dinner. She invites them to her small dumpy apartment but while preparing the meal her oven breaks down. That is the least of her problems as this motley crew attempts to organize themselves for the trip. Everyone brings their own bad taste to the table in this hysterical family comedy.
