It's ostensibly a comedy, but I don't think I ever laughed.

The script is co-written by the American actor Paul Reiser, with a very broad sense of humour, though it’s likable enough. Colm Meaney is also on decent form as undertaker Ciáran.

While the comedic script... favors stereotypes to specificity, director Chris Cottam keeps the rhythm humming nicely enough for its 100-minute running time for the film to be mildly amusing.

It’s interesting to see an experiment with non-traditional sources of conflict, whether or not it entirely works.
