Ben Stiller Stars in David Gordon Green's 'Nutcrackers' at TIFF

The family comedy featuring Stiller and four non-professional child actors opened the Toronto International Film Festival to mixed reviews.

'Nutcrackers' marks David Gordon Green's return to indie-style filmmaking after recent horror reboots.
The film follows a workaholic uncle caring for his late sister's four sons on a chaotic farm.
Critics praised the natural performances of the Janson brothers but noted the film's formulaic plot.
Stiller's portrayal of a city man adjusting to rural life received mixed reactions.
The movie is currently seeking distribution after its festival debut.
