PFS Members Saw it First: Casa de mi Padre

PFS Members were among the first to see Will Ferrell's new spanish-language comedy 'Casa de mi Padre'... So what did you think of the telenovela parody? Is it the funniest movie you'll ever read?

Oh my gosh I loved it. Maybe

Oh my gosh I loved it. Maybe the only thing they should have cut was that "laughing too long" joke, which wasn't even funny in the sinister laugh Austin Powers movies. So many thoughts about this film

1. It finally gives the Mexican point of view on the drug war. How refreshing!
2. Will(Anglo)American audiences be smart enough to read subtitles? Can Will Ferrell's audience keep up? I hope so!
3. It looks like there are a lot of insider jokes about Mexican grade B cinema. COOL. It made me want to know more.
4. IMPRESSED by Will Ferrell. What a ballsy move. It's basically his underdog thing but IN SPANISH. Way to go.
5. Also, smart casting with Gael and his partner from Y tu Mama Tambien.
6. All of the fake stuff, the studio sets, fake dummies, etc- very amusing.
7. Thanks for screening this very exciting film. I think it is a breakthrough. Note: I am not a Spanish speaker but I thought it was hilarious

I thought it was hilarious! Really funny and weird and trippy. Great movie. So over the top it was awesome.

Thin but amusing. Directed

Thin but amusing.

Directed and written, respectively, by Matt Piedmont and Andrew Steele, who both worked on Saturday Night Live and HBO’s Funny or Die Presents, this is less obviously farcical than the movies Ferrell’s made with business partner Adam McKay (Step Brother, Talladega Nights, Anchorman), but even sillier at times. I had the feeling it was an idea Quentin Tarentino would have thought of and farmed out, like something made from one of the fake trailers he put in Grindhouse. The story is mostly there to hold together a gentle parody of every cliché you might associate with Mexico on film, particularly as presented in old westerns. That is to say, it’s a pretty thin movie, but at just 90 minutes it doesn’t wear out its welcome. And how can you dislike a movie that turns Procul Harum’s psychedelic classic “A Whiter Shade of Pale” into a Spanish-language wedding song?

Haha yep, that was a great

Haha yep, that was a great choice for a wedding song.

I had a smile on my face

I had a smile on my face throughout this entire movie, I laughed a lot, and I am really very surprised at all of the negative comments above. This film seemed to be skewering just about everything, including old films without a budget, Spanish tv/soap operas, sappy movie music, drug dealers, and, perhaps most importantly, the US vs Mexico drug war. The cast was great, and, as noted above, putting both Gael Garcia Bernal and Diego Luna (both of "Y Tu Mama Tambien") was inspired. And I concur that it's kind of bold of Ferrell to make one of his crazy comedies in Spanish. I think that the film was under 90 minutes, so the criticisms about its length also surprise me. Bold, well done, and very funny in a "Kill Bill"/"Austin Powers" kind of way.

Yes, there were a few laughs.

Yes, there were a few laughs. We of course we all know it was spoof, the fake scenery, horsing around on fake horses, etc were embarrassing on purpose. OK. Take it for what is was.......but it really is terrible waste of time except for seeing Will's ass once one more time.

I did laugh, but I really

I did laugh, but I really didn't like the movie. It was way too outlandish for my taste. I could have had a V8.....
