Amazon.com:
Parker Posey was the It Girl of independent film in early 1997, the year this film (along with three or four others in which she starred) all played at the Sundance Film Festival. This film was the toughest of the bunch to embrace, based as it was on a self-consciously quirky off-Broadway play about Thanksgiving at the home of a particularly strange family. Oldest son Josh Hamilton comes home from college for the holidays, with fiancée Tori Spelling in tow. What he hasn't told her is that his twin sister, Jackie-O (played by Posey), thinks she's Jackie Kennedy--or that he and Jackie-O have shared more than, shall we say, filial affection. Posey is wonderfully edgy and she and Hamilton spar with entertaining vigor, but you still have to cope with writer-director Mark Waters's pretentious script. --Marshall Fine

Rating:  - One of the best written comedies in years!
This is one of my favorite films... albeit a strange one. I hear people throw around "This film had wonderful writing" a lot... and usually that is not the case. This film IS really good writing at its best. Yes it is dark, but they create a wonderfully icky, witty, believable world. The complexity of the characters and dialogue is really astonishing. The acting is great. Spelling is not the strongest, but perfectly cast in the film as the outcast. THIS IS NOT a first date film! Trust me, I learned ... Read More
Rating: - The House of NEED...
This film is a candy-store of dark, delightful cleverness starring Parker Posey. Yes, Josh Hamilton, T. Spelling, Prinze Jr., Rachael Leigh-Cook and D. Love turn in solid perfomances. Yes, Bujold's is outstanding...
Parker Posey? Ohhhh babydoll! Her performance: a series of perfect periouettes across the obsidian floor of a dancehall known simply as NEED. She is that Sweetest of Smiles 'pon Lips of Night! She is that Song Promising Dark Delight! In this picture She ascends to filmic Goddess ... Read More
Rating:  - should be called the house of no!!
this was gawdawful!!the characters strain to be eccentric.they try soooo hard to be interesting and odd that they, ironically, become forgettable.there is not one particular trait in any character that stands out.parker posey is supposed to emulate jackie kennedy.none of jackie's personality is reflected, nor are her mannerisms, nor does she get quoted.parker posey's character merely dresses like her.ooooohh!really pushing the boundaries!and then they seemingly throw in the incestous affair ...

Rating: - Excellent Movie
This movie may not have the most exciting plot or location, but the razor sharp dialogue more than makes up for it! Quirky, intellegent, and funny.
Rating:  - House Of Cards
The House Of Yes (horrible title!) is a bizarre, dark comedy with much to like, and dislike - ultimately it feels like an interminable, one-gadget shaggy dog story.
The plot is loopy; suspension of disbelief is one thing, dumb is another.(Why is it that criminal insanity among society's elite seems somehow reasonable to audiences, and excuses shabby construction?)
A wealthy and oddly detached widow has raised her twins, (one male, one female), and their dimwitted half-brother, in ... Read More
