Death at a Funeral - Ben

Death at a Funeral is a good British comedy that draws its humour from the satire nature of the events that play out during the film. It was made in 2007, although an American spin off was made in 2010(but let's not talk about that flop).

The main character, Daniel, is organising the funeral for his father, and several other family members and friends are initially shown as they drive to the house where it is taking place. At the beginning we start to see the personalities of the main characters, and as the film progresses more ridiculous events unfold. Overall the funeral starts to become a disaster as several problems keep arising and the stress gets to Daniel.

The comedy in this film is dry and fits the setting very well, there aren't any forced laughs or moments where you cringe at the would be joke; for me that's what makes British humour more enjoyable than American.

Death at a Funeral scored a 7.4/10 from IMDb, 61% from Rotten Tomatoes and 67% from Metacritic, which I feel is somewhat reasonable, as although the film is indeed humorous and well executed, it's not necessarily a 'must see'. I would give it a 7/10.
