Customer ReviewsReviewed on 2008-07-21      FUNNY! All I can say is I keep watching this with my spouse and it is hilarious. The acting is excellent, perfect casting, and particularly funny is Andy N. who plays Howard. All the acting is superb, I can't stop smiling thinking about it. The gag reel extra is also hilarious. |  | Reviewed on 2008-07-20      Great British Farce Frank Oz has created a great movie here, it's rare for a farce to work this well in a movie; they usually play better as sit-coms like Fawlty Towers. The key to it is the pacing, the characters, the gags, and the whole situation grows sillier and more widespread as the laughs unfold. By the end I was laughing hysterically - Loved it! |  | Reviewed on 2008-07-19      Average at best I found this to be average at best with limited humor and average acting. Most everything that happened was predictable. |  | Reviewed on 2008-07-16      Will keep you laughing and laughing and laughing "Death at a Funeral" is a fantastic British comedy about the events at a funeral, involving a range of superhilarious, if slightly juvenile, jokes and physical stunts. A son nervously hosts the funeral for the father he loved, but everything seems to go wrong and that's where the fun comes in. The movie gets to a slow start, but it's worth it. It turns into an extravaganza that gets more outrageous by the minute--involving hallucinogenitic medicines, rude relatives and even excrement. And of course, at the end, everyone has a better understanding of everyone else. But it's a ride you really won't forget, with laugh-out-loud funny writing and talented acting. |  | Reviewed on 2008-07-13      Not Your Typical British Comedy British comedies are not for everyone, but for this movie is for anyone looking for a laugh. I enjoy a good British comedy occasionally, so when I saw this movie I thought I would give it a shot.
I expected the dry humor found in many British comedies, but was also pleasantly surprised to find a good deal of physical and situational comedy.
The movie revolves around a family getting together to pay respects to the father of the two main characters. What ensues is complete madness.
Death at a Funeral is definitely a gem and worth watching. Guaranteed laugh out loud funny. |  |
