The Finellis Movie

Really fun movie with some great quotes and an engaging story line. I thought the acting was great with a varied and interesting cast of characters. Look forward to watching it again.

"The Finellis Movie" is a joyous romp, with a colorful cast of unforgettable characters, a mind-blowing storyline and fantastic music

Mark Janicello is both the comedic glue and the beating heart that holds this story together. Like a singing Rocky Balboa, he takes the beating life gives him but keeps standing back up to fight for his dreams. Janicello is ably aided and abetted by Timo Merkhoffer as his hilarious, foul-mouthed womanizer of a manager, and as his Russian Ex-wife Bianca Karsten is the perfect comic foil.

The rest of the cast is uniformly good. A special mention must be made for Kim Tatum as the Transgender Nightclub owner, Eva Gutierrez. The sequence with Janicello and Tatum is an unexpected twist in storytelling that proves "The Finellis " has more on its mind than just the 90-minutes of belly laughs it so ably delivers.

5 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

Comedy meets drama, musical and comic. Not possible? Yes it can! 93 minutes of roller coaster rides for the emotions. One moment a belly ache from laughing, the next moment tears in your eyes. The charm with which is led through the story is enchanting and unique. The cast is convincing with great acting joy, each character is caricatured to the point. Outstanding is Mark Janicello, who knows how to present each of his talents. The film delivered more than it promised in every respect. For me an absolute highlight with "I WOULD LIKE MORE OF IT" FACTOR.

A lively mix, from a lot of comedy with always great depth and very touching scenes that make you think, great music and comic. The film is very entertaining, fast scene changes but still well told story. Great cast with an outstanding lead actor Mark Janicello, who not only plays the main role and also enlivens the film with his wonderful voice, but to whom we also owe the idea for the film and the script. The film makes you want more......es are still many questions open at the end, for example, what happens next with Tina and Toni, do they find each other or do they just become friends...questions about questions!!!!! We hope for answers in a sequel!!!!!

We were blown away by the Finellis because this is exactly the sort of comedy including very good music, unexpected twists, and a kind of humor which is rare in its inherent intelligence.

Reminded me in some scenes of "The nanny" which is one of our favorites.

A must see!
