Movie: Death at a Funeral
Premise (stolen from RT): "A dignified send-off for a loved one erupts into chaos when romance, jealousy, in-laws, hallucinogens, dark secrets, life-long yearnings and a spot of bold blackmail all collide in this British comedy."
My expectations: None really. The above image of Walsh from Firefly naked on a rooftop peaked my curiosity. I was also interested in seeing a comedy that didn't involve one member of the Frat Pack.
What I got: I consistently chuckled throughout the entire movie, but I laugh easily. It's been a while since I've viewed a comedy where the laughs were derived from normal people getting into awkward situations as opposed to over-the-top characters ruining normal situations (i.e. most Will Ferrel movies). I've also always been a big fan of the multi-character storylines where individual situations all cleverly accumulate into one uproarious mess - this movie was a pretty prime example of it. Naked hallucinating Walsh with an English accent was pretty hilarious.
Conclusion: Not the greatest movie I've seen in a while, but solidly good. I recommend a mindless viewing at least once.
Score:3.75/5
