About My Father
It’s “Meet the Parents” in a culture clash comedy when Sebastian (Sebastian Maniscalco) is invited by the parents (David Rasche & Kim Cattrall) of his girlfriend Ellie (Leslie Bibb) for the Fourth of July weekend at their summer home. Sebastian brings his old country immigrant Sicilian father, Salvo (Robert De Niro). Sebastian wants to propose to Ellie & make a good impression on his future in-laws. He is worried his father’s blue collar values will embarrass him in front of Ellie’s wealthy family. Maniscalco wrote this script loosely based on his own father. This comedy of errors rom/com is focuses on the fact that all families has its eccentric members. I️ found this movie is much funnier than I expected.
Alien gives it 3 “family is everything” stars of 4.
