Nothing groundbreaking but a very refreshing movie in 2023
4 July 2023
This movie doesn't break any new ground and I can see why people call it a cheap knockoff of Meet the Dockers because Robert De Niro is in both but that's a disservice to this movie.

The premise is simple, a hard working/frugal immigrant and his son are going to meet his super rich fiancee's family at their house. Already a good setup for shenanigans and they deliver on it.

I saw some reviews bashing Di Niro's performance and I'm just not getting that vibe. This won't go on his highlight reel but he is funny and does what he needs too.

Sebastian Maniscalco is funny as always and does a great job. The lead actress plays her part well and so does everyone in the family.

Again nothing new here but it's a refreshing comedy in 2023 and one that I would recommend to catch at home. Not worth a theater visit but definitely worth a watch.
