About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a comedy-drama that mixes family culture clash with mounting mafia pressure, in the vein of Divorce Italian Style or Seduced and Abandoned; Not for you if you want nonstop action or a purely light comedy.
Pros: sharp social satire; darkly funny moments; strong lead performance | Cons: tonal shifts feel abrupt; crime elements feel tame; some broad stereotypes
