This movie is absolutely great. The sense of humour is well done, and it is very British. If you like British humour or dark humour, you'll love this movie! And I should say that I do not like comedy movies much, but I love this one. Scenerio is well written and everything in the movie fits together. The movie is certainly successful at expressing a lot in short scenes, and in a manner that is blended in the movie, while making the audience laugh and surprise. I strongly suggest this movie if you want to have a good time. Even if it does not come as funny, it is certainly not a boring one.

When Daniel's father passes away, the whole family reunites at the mansion but the whole event is going to be disturbed by a small character who doesn't have the best intentions. Add up the fact that almost everyone has a secret or a problem of his own and you get a huge mess to enjoy. Will they be able to finish the ceremony or will there be another tragedy waiting to happen?It's the exact same plot as the movie with the same name from 2010 (yes, I've seen that one first) the only difference being the location. It's slow paced as the other one in the beginning until it introduces all its characters but when the action comes in (a bit later than I hoped) you simply cannot stop laughing. They managed to create a laughable atmosphere at a grim and sad event such as a funeral, fact which makes you appreciate their talent even more. The entire plot runs in the same location, all the characters trying to figure out multiple problems at once and failing miserably, thus provoking amusement. It's a comedy so don't expect miracles in terms of story but the actors do a very good job in keeping you entertained while the events, although some expected and stereotypical, create a good overall blend. It's a very good comedy, no doubt about it, but also nothing to blow your mind.

At first, I didn't think that I would watch this movie as it wasn't that famous in our country. But then I want to give a try. The first part of the movie was quite boring as it mainly talks about characters and the situation. But then it got better. The scenes was amazing. Great lines, great acting. The cast really stands out. Every situation was set up amazingly and logically. British have done a great job in this and far more better than the American ver. Not like other stupid comedy films which I hardly laugh, this movie made me laugh so hard. Great plot and shocking scenes. Definitely the example of what people should watch in their weekends. Highly recommended ! And I only give it a 9 as the first part was quite confusing.

Basically, this movie is just a bunch of people, from the same family, who get together for the funeral of the patriarch of the family. But one of those people has a secret regarding this man.Now, the thing that I wanted to see in this movie was funny situations and the characters dealing with them in funny ways. An that's what I saw. The movie is well written, well directed, although i would have liked to see longer shots like moving into a different scene without cutting.' The acting is good too. Some of the character are pretty forgettable but there are some that I will never forget. Like Peter Dinklage's character. I mean the dude was funny as sh*t. Rupert Graves is good in the movie, you know Lestrade from BBC's Sherlock. He kinda reminded me of Barney Stinson. There's another dude, played by Kris Marshall and he's like a drug dealer, dude was good. And Wash from Firefly he's in this movie, most of the movie he's on drugs, but he plays it good.To wrap up the movie funny and good. That is all I have to say
