What critics compared Death at a Funeral to
Potty mouths, potty jokes, and dotty performances are the chief selling points of Death at a Funeral, Neil LaBute's alternately sidesplitting and poop-splattered remake of the 2007 Frank Oz movie about everything that can go wrong at a patriarch's last rites.
The original Death at a Funeral , the 2007 British farce directed by Frank Oz, opened to mixed reviews (critics loved it or hated it) that foretold the film’s fate at the box office.
An unnecessary remake of the 2007 British comedy directed by Frank Oz, "Death at a Funeral" opens well enough as the heaping ensemble is introduced.
Part of the problem with this Death at a Funeral lies with the fact that it begs to be compared with the 2007 film.
Marsden has been on a real comedic roll as of late, and though his performance in “ Sex Drive ” was certainly memorable, he makes “Death at a Funeral” worth watching for him alone.
