Movie Haiku:Sometimes a "dysfunctional family" dramedy tries so hard that it just gets too damn dysfunctional & PETUNIA is a case in point. Growing up with two psychotherapists for parents, of course Adrian, Charlie & Michael are a mess... Of course? The stupidity of all the supposed relationships with lovers & spouses just goes downhill from there. Not yet seen by Rich.
