Guerra De Herederos

I went into this with not much hope. Though some of the scenes are predictable, I give the script and actors credit for going all out in some of the outrageous parts. The movie isn't a record breaker but it was a damn funny change of pace. Everyone plays their part to perfection. Reminds me of Eulogy (2004) or Home For The Holidays (1995) or even Greedy (1994). Definitely should be in the high sixes on IMDb.

I give particular praise to the dialogue, Duchovny has some great lines as does Faris & Toni Collete. Should also point out it has similar vibes to Little Miss Sunshine. If you enjoy the interactions of characters, you'll enjoy this.

: Oh my gosh, I cannot believe the people who gave this funny funny movie such a poor rating. Good acting and some really really funny scenes are the highlights of this one. I found myself laughing out loud on so many occasions. The premise is of course unethical but hardly untrue unfortunately. All of the characters nail their roles and are so funny. I honestly don't know what some people are expecting from such a movie to be honest. If you need a comedy break in your viewing schedule, i highly recommend seeing this film, you won't be disappointed.

To IMDb reviewers. Why have you rejected this review? It has nothing insulating to anyone in it!!!

Wrong with filmakers today? Howcome they cant make stuff better than this standardized generic cha-ta-nooga-choo-choo comedy, where the whirlpool of yap-yapping doing the morning excercise of verbalistic commotion, that , at least for a grumpy old man, wears and tears on the tuba auditiva, leaving me with an enforced tinnitus that can never be prevailed unless something funnier turns up...

well ill admit i had a few good laughs, but that was due to mimics, good pantomiming and goatstare humour, like that dogpainting that looked just like one of the niece's. Fun isnt just what you say but how the whole body says it...

so long live the craps, and the slap stick humour, ive seen better comedies in my nursing careere in real life terminal cases, where the family has done the deals next to the dying bed where no resistance can be made. So im generous when i split a ten in half and awards 5 stars, its laughable,not more than that.

Lots of really low ratings from reviewers on this one, so perhaps I was just in a mood, but I laughed quite a bit while viewing this film - the wife, not so much. Yes, some of the humor is a bit gross, but I didn't find it to be gratuitous gross like one might find in a Seth Rogen film. I thought it fit the scene. I also thought everyone played their character quite well.

I laughed throughout the film and found several scenes particularly amusing. Perhaps some of the humor is a bit too subtle for some while some might be too over-the-top for others, but it combined both well. I though Anna Faris's character was especially amusing, with Duchovney being a close second. Perhaps some of the vulgar language could have been toned down, but I thought it generally fit the character or the situation, and I'm no fan of gratuitous vulgarity.

I think it's worth giving this film a look.

Yes, that is one of the highlight lines in this movie. ( had to substitute a word for their more anatomically correct term, as this is my 4th attempt to post this review!!) Obviously it needs to be heard with regards to the context of the characters involved. If you have lasted that long in? Then you have bought into this type of movie, and chuckled along accordingly.

Its rude, disrespectful, gross, blasphemous, kind of endearing, and overall, amusing. A great ensemble cast bring their professional talents to what may be considered a rather hit and miss script. Resulting in the motley crew of characters coming to life in an absurd but believable manner. From the misogynistic, incestuously weird, battle worn Dick, to the innocent and D&D obsessed young sis. Every character has their place, not one is included, who does not flesh out the whole silly but fun affair.

If you can keep your expectations low, then its a 1 hour 36 minutes diversion, which will give a few smiles, the odd grimace, and even some laughs. Heck, I'm going to change my 6 to a 7 star, it was just about worth it.
