Grave reception for Death at a Funeral

Hollywood has decided to remake a British black comedy just three years after the original came out. This time Chris Rock, Tracy Morgan and Martin Lawrence star in Death at a Funeral which follows the story of an American family that has come together to bury a beloved husband and father.

But as mourners gather, so the day descends into farce. The 2007 version was warmly welcomed by the critics. The remake though has not been received so well.
