    Sweet story with lots of witty one-liners

    I found out about this movie through a recommendation and must say that it was a fun watch. Overall a sweet story, with lots of witty one-liners. Each character brought something different to the table and were all lovable in their own ways, well, except the Mrs... until the end. Worth watching. 10/10.

    a sort of a masterpiece

    We were blown away by the Finellis because this is exactly the sort of comedy including very good music, unexpected twists, and a kind of humor which is rare in its inherent intelligence.

    Reminded me in some scenes of "The nanny" which is one of our favorites.

    A must see!

    Wicked humour and lots of laughs!

    Really fun movie with some great quotes and an engaging story line. I thought the acting was great with a varied and interesting cast of characters. Look forward to watching it again.

    A funny, unique romp that brightened my day

    "The Finellis Movie" is a joyous romp, with a colorful cast of unforgettable characters, a mind-blowing storyline and fantastic music

    Mark Janicello is both the comedic glue and the beating heart that holds this story together. Like a singing Rocky Balboa, he takes the beating life gives him but keeps standing back up to fight for his dreams. Janicello is ably aided and abetted by Timo Merkhoffer as his hilarious, foul-mouthed womanizer of a manager, and as his Russian Ex-wife Bianca Karsten is the perfect comic foil.

    The rest of the cast is uniformly good. A special mention must be made for Kim Tatum as the Transgender Nightclub owner, Eva Gutierrez. The sequence with Janicello and Tatum is an unexpected twist in storytelling that proves "The Finellis " has more on its mind than just the 90-minutes of belly laughs it so ably delivers.

    5 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

    CAN WE GET MORE?

    A lively mix, from a lot of comedy with always great depth and very touching scenes that make you think, great music and comic. The film is very entertaining, fast scene changes but still well told story. Great cast with an outstanding lead actor Mark Janicello, who not only plays the main role and also enlivens the film with his wonderful voice, but to whom we also owe the idea for the film and the script. The film makes you want more......es are still many questions open at the end, for example, what happens next with Tina and Toni, do they find each other or do they just become friends...questions about questions!!!!! We hope for answers in a sequel!!!!!
