Review of Death at a Funeral (2007) by Tom R — 18 Jan 2010
This movie has many points in it that make you laugh just because you're wondering how far it's going to go. It also makes you shake your head and "Oh no, oh no, oh no." The great thing about movies is that you know that this many bad things could never happen in real life.
British comedy is such a different horse from American comedy, and this movie is a good example. The thing is that this movie will still capture American audiences because there is still some comedy that would be funny to most Americans.
The only draw back to this movie is it seems like they go to the well one too many times. Sure, it was funny the first time Tory lost his pills, but at least it showed you how. The second time...really? It's like they ran out of ideas and just kept reusing things.
It was funny nonetheless. Give it a chance.
