I only gave this movie a 6 out of ten but it is worth a watch if you like adrian brody.He is in almost every scene.I really enjoy his work and thought he stood out here,and in Bullet.If you can locate this movie,give it a chance.Burt Young gets to be a mobster again!
This okay comedy is more watchable than funny, and although the cast does a solid job and kept me interested, the movie just didn't deliver enough laughs. It's a pleasant way to kill some time, but it's by no means anything memorable or special. On a side note, it was weird to see a Kari Wuhrer film where she actually keeps her clothes on, but I highly doubt that this fact will attract more people to this movie. Bottom line: This film is decent, but nothing more.
Its a really funny movie. I laugh almost the hole time. Adrien is really funny in it. The movie is really worth watching it. So if you get the chance to see it, do it. This movie is one of Adrien's earliest. But if your a fan of him its a must seeing it! His character in this movie is a really overact goofy, unlucky fellow. Really funny. And he is as always really good in that kind of role. That's what i like about Adrien, he always picks out this really good an hard to act characters. And he's even playing in a low budged movie and is not ashame of it. Thats what i like. So i have nothing more to say, see it for yourself. I now I'm repeating myself, but it's really worth to watch!
Tremendous surprise! Amazingly good! An extremely clever script launches "The Undertaker's Wedding" into the upper reaches of "black comedy land". Definitely in the same class as "Eating Raoul", which also has a wonderful script. Adrien Brody is perfect as the meek undertaker to the mob, caught in the middle of a mob war. His efforts to remain neutral are hilarious, and business has never been better. The stunningly beautiful Kari Wuhuer is well cast as a mob wife. Jeff Wincott and Burt Young add to the fun. This is a must see movie for anyone who admires darkly comic films. Without question "The Undertaker's Wedding" is worthy of "cult status" - MERK
There are some interesting (original?) ideas in the plot, but I found the acting and the general effect just so-so. The movie did not really make me laugh. Also, French readers please note that the dubbing is poor.
