Death at a Funeral

Ah, how I love Netflix. My mailbox, which is usually brimming over with bills, shines on the day I get that little red envelope.

Yesterday, I watched Death at a Funeral where "chaos ensues when a man tries to expose a dark secret regarding a recently deceased patriarch of a dysfunctional British family." (courtesy IMDB) There are a number of character parts who add to the flick. I'm not sure what I was expecting, but it wasn't quite as funny as I had hoped. While definitely some entertaining bits, it seemed a little too over the top at times. If you're into British comedies, I'd still recommend it. It has one of my favorite actors, Peter Dinklage,who I just saw in Penelope. You've probably seen him in things and if he doesn't seem familiar, then rent The Station Agent. It's a fantastic film.
