Mixed Reviews for "About My Father" Starring De Niro and Maniscalco
TL;DR
"About My Father" is a comedy film starring Sebastian Maniscalco and Robert De Niro, directed by Laura Terruso. The movie follows an Italian-American man named Sebastian who falls in love with a woman from a WASP family, leading to a culture clash between the two families. The film attempts to replicate the success of "My Big Fat Greek Wedding" and the "Fockers" franchise, but falls short of being genuinely provocative or disturbing. De Niro's performance is the highlight of the film, but it would have worked better as a period piece.
