Casa de mi padre ***


Director: Matt Piedmont
Year: 2012
Writer: Andrew Steele
Cinematographer: Ramsey Nickell

Silly Will Ferrell, plus Diego Luna and Gael Garcia Bernal... funny, but not smartly written enough to be a great comedy. Mostly just silly mimicking of the American perception of Mexican telenovelas, with '70's aesthetics for some reason, though the film is set in present day. Not much laughter, mostly a few chuckles. Turns surprisingly violent. Silly is the one word descriptor.
