L'Héritage

Well it is not always as easy as it may seem. So no pun intended - we are family ... as a song suggests. But not all families are alike ... and not all families do like ... each other. Especially when it comes down (boils down) to getting a lot of money ... one way or another.

Of course getting inheritance is something some people look forward to - openly ... and others just have it in the back of their mind. How to draw the real character and see who is deserving .. well you can say the movie (characters) have it in for them here. You hopefully will like the comedy and humor - with some interesting twists along the way too ... not super special (and overall for many I reckon predictable) ... but decent enough ... which again, can't be said about most characters I reckon.

This movie gets a bad wrap but I actually enjoyed it quite a lot. I thought it was very creative, and innovative to combine mystery with comedy, and I laughed at the absurd of every situation. I like the exaggerated style of the characters. The plot is quite unpredictable, and that's precisely why it makes it so interesting for me. I also like the message the uncle was trying to teach the family, of the importance of family union rather than money. It is fun if you want to watch something light hearted, where you don't feel you are losing neurons while you watch it (what happens with some more famous American comedies). I had a good time.

Silly, but not in a good way. Unlikeable characters; poor dubbing in which the English words don't always make sense. I know it's supposed to be played for laughs, but how stupid is it at the beginning when family members are racing each other to get to the house, and even though they're about 1/2 mile apart they're driving on the wrong side of the street and swerving from side-to-side with no other car in sight?

I guess it's a mystery but not very compelling. Family interaction, in which you can't decide which family member you hate the most; I watched it while reading a book. At least the book was good.

This film is truly awful, I've seen better acting from sock puppets, it manages some unique it combines comedy/drama/escape rooms and never hits the target in any of these genres. It is quite possibly one of the worst films I have ever seen.

It must have been written by someone living in a cave who has never seen either a comedy or any other decent films and who hasn't spoken to a human since before lockdown.

I have seldom seen a film that I can't find a single positive word to say about it, I pray they never, ever make a sequel, don't watch this film it isn't even so bad it's funny it's just awful from start to finish and it gets worse.

Movie tries to be a bit of crime, a bit of mystery, a bit of family drama all wrapped in a comedy. But in the end it ends up being worst of all worlds. Crime isn't intriguing, mystery isn't compelling and drama isn't dramatic. While most of the jokes fall flat.

It doesn't help that characters tend to be on the cliche side and one dimensional. In the end when all comes together you realise you don't really care and twists that keep piling in the end are just boring.

Few jokes are fine and there are couple of funny scenes sprinkled but not enough of either to save the movie. Pretty much the only positive thing I can say about it is that I watched it during boring night shift and it helped me pass the time.
