Robert De Niro has described the 2009 family drama Everybody’s Fine as his most underrated film, arguing that it deserved greater attention than it received. The article presents the film as a neglected entry in his career, despite its emotionally direct story and a cast he believed performed strongly.

De Niro plays Frank Goode, a widower who travels across the United States to visit his four adult children and discovers how distant he has become from them. Directed by Kirk Jones and adapted from Giuseppe Tornatore’s 1990 Italian film Stanno tutti bene, it co-stars Drew Barrymore, Kate Beckinsale, Sam Rockwell and Rockwell’s fellow cast members; De Niro blamed its disappointing reception partly on poor promotion and distribution.
