Real Life' is a parody of the TV show 'American Family' in which the characters were not played but supposedly 'lived on camera'. The movie shows what happens if you actually make a movie in which the characters are not played by actors. The movie is set within two months of the beginning of the 'life' of the TV show.
The days flash by very quickly, rarely does each day take more than a few minutes. Only one episode is shown from each day, and some days are skipped altogether. Of course, it is difficult to keep up with such a frantic pace, it is rather to the disadvantage of the movie.
On the plus side is the performance of the actors. They play here whose lives are captured on film. Of course, they want to be the best, but none of them succeeds.
