The quirky Kerrigan family lives together in a makeshift home they built themselves – with great pride and a bizarre attention to detail – a few yards from the edge of Melbourne, Australia's busy Tullamarine Airport. When a building inspector condemns the building and reveals that the government plans to use their land for an airport expansion, Darryl Kerrigan and his brood recruit hack attorney Dennis Denuto and prepare themselves for the fight of their lives.

Dad, you haven't let anyone down. I don't know what the opposite of lettin' someone down is... but you done the opposite
If Up and A Christmas Story had a son I will always love these types of movies because they remind me of my family, and they’re so comforting to watch, I just want to quote every single part of it And this is going straight to the pool room!!!!!!
It's the vibe
