Basically it's a family reunion where two young kids don't want to be around their weird relatives, hilarious and realistic the way they did it.

Cute story and some of the lines are funny no matter for which age group. The monsters were funny and a country corniness that matched the plot perfectly.
It excelled with the two mains being so funny, sarcastic, and realistic kids put amidst dysfunctional family madness, while being bored out of their minds, being forced to eat yucky relative food, and endure family "bonding."
