Alexander's day begins with gum stuck in his hair, followed by more
calamities. However, he finds little sympathy from his family and begins
to wonder if bad things only happen to him, his mom, dad, brother and
sister - who all find themselves living through their own terrible,
horrible, no good, very bad day.
Director: Miguel Arteta
Storyline
For 12 year old Alexander Cooper, everyday is a bad day. And his family
thinks he's being silly because they never have a bad day. On the day
before his 12th birthday party, he learns that another boy is having a
party of his own and everyone is going to it. And another kid punks him
online. So at midnight of his birthday, he wishes that his whole family
can have a bad day. And things for the whole family go bad, his mom's
car is broken so they have to share a car, his sister has a cold and has
to go on stage, his older brother, who's hoping to get his driver's
license and to bring his girlfriend to the prom, has to deal with his
girlfriend's snootiness and fails to get his license, his mom has a
crisis at work which could cost her her job, and his dad who has a job
interview has to bring his younger brother with him but because his
pacifier is broken he can't stop crying. Alex feels responsible.
