Peep World is a dramedy that was released in 2010. Directed by Barry W. Blaustein, it boasts an impressive cast including Michael C. Hall, Sarah Silverman, Rainn Wilson, Ben Schwartz, Kate Mara, and Taraji P. Henson. Peep World is a story about a wealthy Jewish family that owns apartment buildings. The film takes place on the same day as the family's patriarch's (Ron Rifkin) novel is being published. The novel is based on the family's secrets and scandals, which are about to be exposed to the world.

The family members are from different generations, and each has unique issues to deal with. There's Jack (Michael C. Hall), a successful businessman who is sued by a former business partner for stealing his idea. Jack’s wife Laura (Judy Greer) is also not happy with his extramarital affair. There's Joel (Rainn Wilson), who is not happy with his job and the fact that his pregnant wife Mary (Leslie Ann Warren) does not want to raise their child Jewish. Cheri (Sarah Silverman) is an angry and bitter failed actress who is going through a divorce. Finally, there's Nathan (Ben Schwartz), who is the youngest and still searching for his path in life.

As the family members prepare for their father's book launch party, tension builds, and secrets come out. The movie is filled with flashbacks and scenes from the past to show how the family got to where they are. We see the family members in different stages of their lives, and the audience starts to understand how the secrets and scandals affected them.

The film's tone is light, and the humor is subtle, resulting in a comfortable and relatable movie. The dialogue is witty, and the actors' performances are top-notch, bringing the characters to life. The director did a great job of balancing the movie's dramatic moments and comedic scenes, keeping the pace from getting too heavy.

One of the film's strengths is its relatability. Despite the extravagant wealth and unusual circumstances, the family's issues are universal. Whether it's marital troubles, family discord, or career uncertainties, every viewer can relate to at least one of the character's struggles.

Peep World is also about the price of success and the cost to relationships. The family's wealth and power come at a considerable cost, including betraying one another, covering up scandals, and neglecting personal relationships. The family members' struggles are real, and despite their success, they are still human and vulnerable.

The movie's cinematography is also noteworthy, with excellent camera work and lighting that showcases the family's wealth and sophistication. The film's score features a mix of classical music and pop songs that add to its easy vibe.

Overall, Peep World is an enjoyable and well-acted film that explores the complexities of family, relationships, and success. The movie's themes are relatable, and the humor is smart, making it a fantastic watch for viewers who appreciate character-driven movies.

Peep World is a 2011 comedy with a runtime of 1 hour and 29 minutes. It has received mostly poor reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 5.5 and a MetaScore of 27.
