Review of Casa de Mi Padre (2012) by Alex D — 10 Dec 2012
I love parodies, I think more than any type of comedies. To take a type of genre and take it to the extreme always has moments of hilarity, but at the same time one has to know how to take the parody and still make a good enjoyable movie out of it without relying to much on the initial joke.
Like Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz, Black Dynamite, etc. I think this movie relies too much on the Will Ferrel as a Mexican joke. It did have other funny moments but towards the end it starts to lose it.
I think the parody is able to carry itself just enough to have been minimally successful for me.
