Movie Reviews of When Do We Eat?
Movie Review: Ordinary People Dirty Dancing in Like Water for Chocolate
Summary: 5 Stars
A warm and funny little movie, with a gaggle of stereotypical characters - sometimes more than one in the same person. Let's see, there's the Angry Overworked Father, the Dude teenage beanied druggie son, the ex-yuppie horny Hassid, the Hot cousin, the Vin Diesel-like super Israeli, the lesbian-and-in-pain Barbara Streisandy step-daughter, the Suffering Cipher wife, the insightful non-Jewish African American and the Holocaust Representative grandfather. You can bet they play off one another and set off one another just by being in the same room. Not everything works and there is an attempt to clean up the drug connection issue at the end which is just not believable and seems to have been put in at the demand of the Propriety Police. . .
Overall, however, the movie is delightful. It's a mix of broad comedy, predictable conflict, and some extraordinary bits of truth and pain mixed in. In that regard, watch the movie if only for Jack Klugman. He's an old man with a suitcase full of pain, literally and figuratively. His acting is superb and he transcends what could have been a two-dimensional maudlin part. Bravo.
"When Do We Eat" is a small gem that you will keep for a long time in memory.
