Synopsis
When “I’ve-lived-so-long-I-can-say-anything-I-want” septuagenarian Jack (Christopher Plummer) is kicked out of his senior home, his estranged daughter, single mom and avid animal rescuer Laura (Vera Farmiga), has to drive him from Texas to California. Lucky for Jack, Laura brings her troubled son Henry along, and he proves the perfect accomplice to help Jack unload $200,000 worth of marijuana he needs to distribute along the way. (Yep. Jack’s an underwhelming father and a dealer.) Parents! *sigh* Amirite? Written and directed by Shana Feste (Country Strong), and also starring Lewis MacDougall, Bobby Cannavale, Kristen Schaal, Dolly Wells, Yahya Abdul-Mateen, Christopher Lloyd, and Peter Fonda.

Where Feste best succeeds in Boundaries isn’t in the father-daughter relationship, which finds her straining for a tight resolution, but in the mother-son one, where the two actors vibe easily and persuasively off each other.
Self-satisfied and too slick by half, Boundaries projects a sheen of artifice that deflects any genuine engagement with the story.
