Death at a Funeral (2010)

Death at a Funeral (2010) 2010

An American re-make the 2007 Brit comedy of the same name.

Daniel (Chris Rock) returns home after the death of his father and - as the most responsible member of a highly dysfunctional family - he’s busy trying to keep it all together. Things start badly when the wrong coffin arrives, get worse when his successful but reckless novelist brother (Martin Lawrence) tells him he can’t help pay for the funeral, and slide even further downhill when his cousin’s new boyfriend accidentally takes some hallucinogens. When a mysterious dwarf (Peter Dinklage, from the The Station Agent and the original Death at a Funeral) takes Daniel aside at the funeral to reveal a secret affair with his dead father, things really begin to plummet.

Starring Chris Rock, Martin Lawrence, Danny Glover, Luke Wilson, Regina Hall, Tracy Morgan, James Marsden, Peter Dinklage, Zoe Saldana, Columbus Short

Directed by Neil LaBute ('Nurse Betty', 'The Wicker Man')

Written by Dean Craig

    Why remake it?
    The original was brilliant.
    I guess Americans like to repeatedly prove they are stupid, because they are too stupid to realise that we already know they are stupid.

    Please don't degrade the original down to unfunny racial american humour. Please, don't ever remake a good film that isn't even ten years old yet. Please, just call the whole thing off as a hoax and I will sleep well tonight.

    I agree with Aaron. There is no way that the American version will come even close to the original British one.

  • The Original was better

    After seeing the trailer, the new cast and lame race jokes just isn't as good as the british version
