Guerra Entre Herdeiros

It's the terrible cliched and obnoxious screenplay with flaccid directing by filmmaker Dean Craig that flops this film. The comedy was somewhere between eye-rolls and cringe, and all the humor felt fake and forced. Even all the cast performances were wooden and stale, except for David Duchovny, who from his first hilarious scene him saying "wazaaap", was the only real and convincing entertainment in this film. Everyone else, including the story, felt like I was watching failed and unrehearsed SNL sketches. Even the legendary Kathleen Turner had only a few moments where she wasn't annoying. It's a very generous 5/10 from me, only because Duchovny shined in this comedy and was the only one that delivered the laughs. He needs to be in more comedies, he's a natural.

Aunt Hilda is dying, and her greedy relatives all arrive, and attempt to get her to favour them in her will, leaving them her estate.

For such a bitter and twisted scenario, it's a little too light, it doesn't quite hit the spot, there are a couple of amusing moments, a few dark laughs, but it doesn't quite work.

I don't think it's as bad as some of the reviews would suggest, but given the basic plot and the list of names, I really did hope for more.

There's definitely some pedigree here, Toni Collette, David Duchovny and Anna Faris are all pretty good, I thought Kathleen Turner was perhaps the standout as grumpy Aunt Hilda.

Richard, only David Duchovny could make a moustache and a Kappa tracksuit look super cool.

It should have been ten times better.

5/10.

What is wrong with people these days?? No, but seriously... what do you expect in a movie?! If a movie like this which is good, hilarious, well-made, well-written, well-acted, etc gets such low reviews what does that say about today's audience? All the Marvel and Disney movies must have really messed with your head because you clearly have lost all sense of judgement. This movie is a total gem! The situations are ridiculous, the actors are hilarious, the writing is great... I mean what more could you ask for? I love Anna Farris and Toni Collette but the real MVP here was Rosemarie DeWitt. She absolutely stole the show.

Please don't listen to the negative reviews. These people need professional medical help. Enjoy!

Wrong with filmakers today? Howcome they cant make stuff better than this standardized generic cha-ta-nooga-choo-choo comedy, where the whirlpool of yap-yapping doing the morning excercise of verbalistic commotion, that , at least for a grumpy old man, wears and tears on the tuba auditiva, leaving me with an enforced tinnitus that can never be prevailed unless something funnier turns up...

well ill admit i had a few good laughs, but that was due to mimics, good pantomiming and goatstare humour, like that dogpainting that looked just like one of the niece's. Fun isnt just what you say but how the whole body says it...

so long live the craps, and the slap stick humour, ive seen better comedies in my nursing careere in real life terminal cases, where the family has done the deals next to the dying bed where no resistance can be made. So im generous when i split a ten in half and awards 5 stars, its laughable,not more than that.

Yes, that is one of the highlight lines in this movie. ( had to substitute a word for their more anatomically correct term, as this is my 4th attempt to post this review!!) Obviously it needs to be heard with regards to the context of the characters involved. If you have lasted that long in? Then you have bought into this type of movie, and chuckled along accordingly.

Its rude, disrespectful, gross, blasphemous, kind of endearing, and overall, amusing. A great ensemble cast bring their professional talents to what may be considered a rather hit and miss script. Resulting in the motley crew of characters coming to life in an absurd but believable manner. From the misogynistic, incestuously weird, battle worn Dick, to the innocent and D&D obsessed young sis. Every character has their place, not one is included, who does not flesh out the whole silly but fun affair.

If you can keep your expectations low, then its a 1 hour 36 minutes diversion, which will give a few smiles, the odd grimace, and even some laughs. Heck, I'm going to change my 6 to a 7 star, it was just about worth it.
