I finally saw this last week and really liked it.  I didn't know going in that it was foremost a family drama with the satire more of the B plot.  I think that was a wise choice.  I liked the gag of his book but it felt a little cliched and I don't think it could have carried the whole movie that well. 

Jeffrey Wright is deserving of his best actor nom.  Sterling K Brown was hilarious and stole every scene he was in.  Seth Cohen much the same in his brief cameo.  I've been thinking about the ending a lot.  Initially I wished they had stuck with the teased fade to black ending but I think I've come around to liking how they showed the 3 possible endings (shout out to Clue) while finally having Monk resign to sell out...again.  Why not at that point?
