In death we deal.

Chief Beecroft is an industrial billionaire who dies in his dining room at his table. Days after, his lawyer shows up with an invitation to his family to read his codicil before his will. The family includes his daughters from his first wife, his second wife and their son.....and his three mistresses WITH there children, along with a son NO ONE knew about. The codicil reads that EVERYONE should stay in the family home and prepare his funeral. If they get to fighting and leave, NOTHING will be left to anyone. This film was funny, and it would probably been funnier to me if the accents weren't so thick while talking so fast. I kept trying to decipher so many times and just let it go and let the film move on. Still, it was a pleasant flick and I totally enjoyed it.

Imagine trying to make indomie without spice

This movie is soo bad that 5 minutes to the end you're still wondering what's going o. Same old Ebonylife narrative of using a big party scene and star cast to sell am movie

Bad parenting

Leading by example and all that. I do understand if some viewers are way more annoyed than others. It really is in the eye of the beholder and while the movie tries to tell a morality tale (sort of), it really misses to connect most of the time with the people watching (supposed to be entertained and you know learn something for life, I reckon?).

It's not the worst movie I've seen by a longshot. But it is sure to leave most unengaged (the ending did not make it any better either). Liked the music in the end credits, but even that might split some people

Loved this Movie

I was really surprised to read negative reviews for this movie. Do we truly know what a good movie is? This movie was really good, very enjoyable. Well developed characters, believable and relatable story line. And the quality, fantastic. Well done guys. Loved it even more than wedding party 1 and 2. I am not disappointed at all.
