Mafia Mamma

I do not know why people are saying they wanted to get out of the cinema or rate it 1/10. Well I guess there a different people have different taste.

Sure it is not an exceptional movie. For me it was entertaining.

I had fun watching it, and I guess that is what a movie is about.

The cast is nice and the story, well, I probably can name thousands of movies who are predictable. There are so few movies which give something extra, and this is not one of them.

In a way it shows that all people have a limit before they turn to their dark side. Maybe that is a message you get out of here, together with the fact that all "horrible" people also have a good side.

Monica Bellucci and Toni Collette are absolutely delightful in Mafia Mamma. When I saw the trailer for this film, I knew it was going to be a fun ride and definitely did not disappoint. There was a couple of flat moments, but the rest was jam packed action and tidbits of gore.

It's probably not a film I would bother watching again though. It is like a once off enjoyable flick, but nothing I would put on my DVD shelf and turn to for a laugh.

If you want a fun film, like some action and comedy. Then it is well worth checking out. Like I said the two leading ladies performances definitely make it worthwhile.

Worst movie ever! We went to see it because Toni Collette is in it. We just hoped to have a few laughs. We weren't expecting it to be awesome but, we never expected it to be soooo bad that we would have to walk out! I won't be in a hurry to see another Toni Colette movie too soon which is sad because I have enjoyed other movies she has been in. I guess she needed the money. And the director should give refunds!! I'll have to write her name down so I can avoid anything she is involved with in the future. How is it that this film was released as is? Best advice to everyone: Don't go, don't go, don't go.

Toni Collette plays a bored and unassuming housewife catapulted into the highlife of being a mafia boss.

Oh what can I say. Toni Collette at her very best. I adore this lady she can make you believe anything. She's supported by a great cast in this dramedy and I belly laughed several times and I rarely ever do that during a film.

The story is silly of course but how many great film stories are? Is it any sillier than Bladerunner or Star Wars? But it is so engaging, and so funny, and yet still has high tension that you can't help be carried along on a wave of pure enjoyment.

This has been the highlight of my year so far. If you enjoy well acted, well directed, fun stories watch this film and I am sure you will be entertained.

I was absolutely delighted to discover this film, as it was shot in the beautiful country of Italy, which immediately captured my attention. And while I was initially expecting a light-hearted story, I found the film to be much more than that, with a riveting plot centered around warring mafia families. Yes, the violence and bloodshed is a bit intense, but it was the brilliant irony of the innocent character of Kristin Balbano, who thought she was on an Italian romantic adventure, that truly captivated me. The performances by Toni Collette (Kristin) and Monica Bellucci (Bianca) were outstanding and they shared incredible chemistry, especially in the scenes where they were together. The rest of the cast also did a fantastic job, bringing the story to life in a way that kept me completely engaged throughout. The stunning Italian location and fitting score only added to the film's appeal. I highly recommend giving this movie a chance - it's a no-brainer! I'd give it a solid 7 out of 10. And again, I do not understand the reviews giving this movie a rating of 1 or 2. Did they see the movie? Or thought they would see the new Godfather? Relax, watch and enjoy life!
