Passed Away is one of those movies that introduces a family filled with troubled people, brings them all together at a funeral and solves their dilemmas, while also trying desperately to be funny and heartwarming

Even such a superlative cast cannot save this picture, which seems desined to pass away soon, to be interred and half-forgotten in the video racks of America.

Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom

Funny black comedy about a man's experiences at his father's funeral. Hilarious performances by the entire cast.

An extremely watchable comedy. Perhaps underrated. Lively performances from the entire cast make the story engrossing.

Fun ensemble movie. It's "My Big Fat Greek Wedding" for Irish Americans.
