In each iteration, there is a callback to each of those, that act as a refresher to the audience as well, and bring a smile to the lips. Considering the loops the tale goes through, another aspect that the helmer needs to be appreciated for is the attention paid to details like individual character quirks. It never calls attention to itself, which is a feat by itself. The skill of the cinematographer and the production designer (and the art designer) should be placed on a pedestal for this one, since the look of the movie, even during the period sequences, is almost perfect. One more point of note - each frame looks prefect. Due credit to the writer/helmer for not succumbing to such temptation. The fact that this has 3 generations of actors leading the setup is incidental, though it helps, and it is indeed ironic noting the applicability of the lines written for the characters, versus the real- life personas of the celebrity family members portraying them, and its surprising that the overwhelming feeling is something nice, rather than something typically overdone, which this could've devolved into quickly. The trailers did a disservice to this flick for sure, since they did not motivate me to watch it, but boy am I glad I did, that too with my dad on father's day.
