5 Casa De Mi Padre
Starring: Will Ferrell, Gael García Bernal, Diego Luna, Génesis Rodríguez
Director: Matt Piedmont
Out: 16 March 2012
All-Spanish language comedy. Armando (Will Ferrell) has lived and worked on his father’s ranch in Mexico his entire life. As it encounters financial difficulties, his supposedly successful brother (Luna) shows up to save the day, complete with new fiance (Rodríguez). But when Armando falls for her, and his brother’s business dealings turn out to be less than legit, all hell breaks loose and they find themselves in a war with a fearsome drug lord (Bernal). The story is told in an overly dramatic telenovela style and feature English subtitles. The idea is risky and fun, but is it better suited to a sketch? [Critics: 44%] [Public: 5.5] – Mediocre
