I like comedies set around family gatherings during times of mourning — black humor tends to be right up my alley (which clearly proves I'm not a racist). However, this particular film left me feeling quite disappointed. A good comedy should have me entertained, ideally laughing out loud. Unfortunately, this one fell short of the mark. I found myself fighting off sleepiness, and when I wasn't battling to stay awake, my mind wandered elsewhere entirely. It's not fair to blame the actors; rather, the problem was with the script. While the premise showed promise and the story got off to a decent start, it quickly lost momentum. Don't get me wrong, I did manage to crack a smile here and there, but the overall entertainment value fell far short of my expectations. / Lesson learned: If you're meeting someone in front of a bank, make sure it's a bank you've got serious issues with.
