Death At The Funeral: U.S Theatrical Trailer

Remake is a bit of a sensitive word these days in the movie world. A lot of people cringe at the idea of an classic or even crap movie getting a remake or reboot, it just makes you want to crawl under a stone. But there’s another side where people are ecstatic & over the moon at a movie getting a remake/reboot. I seem to be on the line a lot these days I usually like to wait and see the movie before I make any judgement on it unless the remake is stepping on holy ground and destroying a classic making it Laughing stock. So today the trailer for the for Death At The Funeral was released based on a remake of a 2007 Frank Oz movie, Yes I said 2007!

That’s one of the main things that makes me cringe about remakes some are hardly out the cinema and some wise crack decides to remake it. The wisecrack was Chris Rock who is in this movie along with Martin Lawerance, Danny Glover, the sexy Zoe Saldana, Luke Wilson, James Marsden and Peter Drinklage who was in the original version and is the only mildly funny part of this debacle.

The story is simple it’s a small private family funeral which turns into a farcical riot when dark family secrets are exposed and missing bodies?! Sony are the company responsible for this piece of trash been released and the director in the chopping board is Wicker Man remake, Lakeview terrace director Neil LaBute and if your in excruciating pain waiting to see this you’ll have to wait until 4th June 2010 for UK & Ireland and for our American friends its 20th April.Ill leave the you to decide to see this or not.
