Alien at the Movies

Mafia Mamma

An ignored pharmaceutical marketer Kristen (Toni Collette) has her life turning upside down. Then she receives a call from Italy that her grandfather has died & she must come to settle his affairs. Reluctantly, she goes hoping for a nice vacation & to find a little romance in her unhappy life. At the funeral, she learns about the true family business & why she has been estranged from the family. This is a fish-out-of-water story & a spoof of The Godfather/Mafia genre. There are lots of laughs, twists & turns as she becomes head of the family & must deal with her enemies. This becomes a personal growth experience for her. 

Alien gives it 3 “Eat, Pray, & F*ck” stars out of 4.
