Rich Bonaduce reviews “Death at a Funeral 2010″

Rich’s Quickie: A one note comedy that basically hits that note twice.

Life: James Marsden supplies most of the laughs in this unnecessary remake (starring as boyfriend of Zoe Saldana), who accidentally takes a hallucinogenic drug on their way to a funeral. Yes, they pretty much built a whole movie around this.

Death: And that storyline is apparently so funny they hit that note twice; as Peter Dinklage ends up swallowing some of the same drug at the same funeral. Hilarity was supposed to ensue, but was covered in extra subplots and storylines that weren’t nearly as engaging, and other jokes that involve Danny Glover playing a family patriarch who defecates on Tracy Morgan’s hand. Yep; Morgan) along with the filmmakers) are literally handing you a bunch of crap.

Movie Grade: C-

Rated R for language, drug content and some sexual humor.

Directing: Neil LaBute
Writing: Dean Craig
