Mafia Mamma 2023

So boring…I watched it because I’m Italian and love italian jokes….. even those were bad and not funny…

This movie is so bad that is actually... still bad. This should have been a cartoon, played at 3am, on a flight.

just fluff and stuff, mostly nonsense, one of the most predictable movies i have ever seen. so many more movies out there more worthy of your time. I really expected more from Toni Collette.

i loved this movie so much, the script was extremely original and i feel like this is part of a resurrection of the genre of feel good comedies. i hope to see more thought out light hearted films like this in the future. if you liked this you should check out spy, another movie that i feel like embodies this better version of a classic genre.

As much as I adore Toni Collette, this is pretty bad. Toni's inability to be naturally comedic completely drags down the humourous, lighthearted angle that the movie appears to be swinging for, with none of the timing or cadence of the humour hitting how it should. That said, the script and jokes themselves are by the book and forgettable so Toni would really struggle to do anything with the material here anyway. This almost feels like an Amy Schumer film where they accidentally got Collette and didn't alter the script or character to fit someone of Toni's calibre.
A miss, almost like an extended SNL sketch that's struggling to find the one redeeming joke. I'd skip, even for Toni Collette stans like myself.

This was way too gory for a comedy of this kind.

Once again, It's Hardwickes' world, and we're living in it.

Toni Collette is very talented but she has a tendency to star in movies that are far beneath her. Mafia Mamma is one of her worst.

Yeah, really bad, plot, acting, story, everything. Don't bother with it.

Here I am once again begging Toni Collete to fire her entire team and agent

Yup. I love Toni Collette, but this movie is still a bad one. Sorry

I was expecting something better. But it was was entertaining. Ok for a rainy weekend.

Short version: a romeo&juliet story in modern setting wrapped in cringe comedy and gags.

Long version : With Italy as a background, just 20 min in with the aeroport scene here comes a modern romeo&juliet incarnation - happy happy edition (though I appreciated the metaphorical "double murder" of the couple!). Problem is, I think the scenarists thought the classic tragedy plotline was strong enough to allow for the most distracting and ridiculous gags and developments. I'm not sure it works well, mainly due to the many genres mixed up there, but it is good comedy, and it is an amazing couple of actresses. The "side" developments serve well in transforming the archetypal suburbian mom into mafia boss.
And kudos to Toni Collette. I knew her from the power, but she plays beautifully : as realistic as the role allows, and perfectly dead serious in the cringe comedy moments.
At times I felt a little bit overwhelmed in American soft power through Toni Collette's intensity though

If you have nothing to do it's mildly amusing. Would you set out to watch it.....eh, no! Utter drivel
