Death at a Funeral
Chaos reigns when members of a dysfunctional family gather to bury a loved one. The dignified ceremony devolves into a hilarious, no-holds-barred debacle of misplaced cadavers, indecent exposure, and shocking family secrets.

...an ingratiating bit of energetic silliness that'll surely delight fans of British comedy...

Death at a Funeral may be the funniest movie ever set in such a deadly serious setting.

It's no classic, but it did prompt me to watch those great old Ealing Alec Guinness comedies again.

Death at a Funeral never quite hits the farcical heights it's aiming for, but it's still got plenty going for it, thanks to an excellent cast and experienced direction.

Death at a Funeral might have been made in the 1960s, not to be released until well past its stale date.

When turned loose on accessible, not altogether-insincere dark-comedy scenarios, Frank Oz understands humor at a molecular level of structure, volume and timing. An impossible last-shot stinger aside, "Death at a Funeral" is farce at its most flawless.

No, there aren't a lot of surprise giggles in it. But at this Funeral, the pleasure is in seeing those giggles coming.

Lazy comedy, and it's only made passable mainly by its manic cast and pace.

Weighing in at a brisk 90 minutes, the picture does have the advantage of brevity, and on screen no less than off, there's much to be said for a quick send-off.

Despite a final half hour that's full of laughs, Death takes so long getting its farce gears moving that the audience becomes comatose with anticipation of mirth that is too late in coming.

Scatological grue, nudity, swearing, drug-taking and the chance to watch two grown men wrestle a midget...
