the remake of Death at a Funeral was funny. of course, it was full of talented comedic actors (and comedians) and almost an identical version of a hilarious movie.
the primary differences being that the second one was black and American.
i found it distasteful and unnecessary to remake a British movie 3 years after the original. it was interesting to see comedic actors in the remake, although i preferred the predominantly dramatic cast of the first. it's weird seeing Matthew Macfadyen and Chris Rock play the same character.
