It's Kind of a Funny Story

An engaging, uneven, quirky, bittersweet comedy in which a smart, imaginative, depressed, high school student (Keir Gilchrist) with suicidal thoughts admits himself to the psych ward of a New York City hospital to the concern of his parents (Lauren Graham and Jim Gaffigan) and the surprise of his best friends (Thomas Mann and Zoƫ Kravitz) and then finds himself coming to terms with his feelings when he connects to the eclectic group of mentally disturbed patients (Zach Galifianakis, Emma Roberts, Daniel London, Matthew Maher, Bernard White, Adrian Martinez, et al.) and caring staff (Viola Davis, Jeremy Davis, Aasif Mandvi, et al.).
