Trite and shallow

Four brothers and their families gather at the childhood vacation home after the death of the patriarch.

This is TV level filmmaking. The characters of the four brothers are stale archetypes; they may as well have been named 'Heartless Businessman', 'Blocked Playwright', 'Fat Loser', and 'Womanizing Flake'. That's all the depth they have.

There is some plot revolving around the staff and the inheritance, but those plotlines were not interesting and their resolution was not credible. The title seems to be a deliberate evoking and reversing of 'Bonjour Tristesse', but pointlessly. At least the production values are good.
