This movie is a remake of a Frank Oz 2007 flick. This version it is the story about Aaron, Chris Rock, a well-mannered and hard working young man, married to Michelle Regina Hall, and still living at his father's home. When his father dies, it is up to Aaron, the oldest son, to organize the funeral and give the eulogy. There are many other story lines within the movie and there lies the problem.
The trailer for this movie was great but had the majority of the laughs that movie has.
I thought this was going to be Chris Rock's first big movie hit however Tracey Morgan steals the movie away from him. This is not Morgan's breakthrough role but if I was a comedian I wouldn't want him in my movies, he is that funny.
Zoe Saldana and Christopher Short (who are also both in The Losers?!?) also star in this movie.
Verdict: Too much dialogue and comics, not enough laughs.
