Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day
One day can change everything.
The dog burnt my homework.
A young boy's day begins with gum stuck in his hair, followed by more disasters. He gets little sympathy from his family, and begins to wonder if bad things only happen to him. As luck would have it though, his mom, dad, brother, and sister all find themselves living through their own terrible, horrible, no good, very bad day. Note that although this film features Steve Carrell, it is a Disney movie so things are not too adult. Note the unusually short running time.
