Martin Lawrence in "Death at a Funeral" Remake

Posted: March 7th, 2009 by WorstPreviews.com Staff
Martin Lawrence in Death at a Funeral RemakeSubmit Comment
Tracy Morgan ("30 Rock") and Martin Lawrence (Bad Boys) are joining Chris Rock in the Screen Gems remake of the 2007 British comedy "Death at a Funeral." Also joining the cast are Loretta Devine, Ron Glass, Danny Glover, Regina Hall, James Marsden, Zoe Saldana and Columbus Short.

Neil LaBute (The Wicker Man, Lakeview Terrace) is directing the ensemble comedy in which a funeral ceremony turns into a debacle of misplaced cadavers and family secrets. When things can't get any worse, a man arrives saying he's the dead man's gay lover and threatens blackmail.

Rock co-wrote the script with Ayesha Carr and will take the film's setting from Britain into an urban American setting. Production is set to begin this Spring.

Maybe they should call it "Death at the Box Office."

Does anybody else think Martin Lawrence is a loud, ignorant, no-talent hack that only appeals to the lowest common denominator?

WOW! I can't believe that people actually think this is a good idea! The original was stellar. I think I will put a bullet in my brain now

Chris Rock is just totally unfunny and so has to resort to stealing the plots from other sources, he could have at least looked for something that's not in anyones recent memory, idiot.
