Cape Times Kirk Honeycutt Funeral is dead on its feet | 5 | |
Box Office Pete Hammond The remake doesn’t trump the original. Heck, it doesn’t even match it. | 5 | |
Chicago Sunday Times Roger Ebert Although it's almost a scene-by-scene remake of a 2007 British movie with the same title, it's funnier than the original. | 18 | |
eye Weekly Adam Nayman Death at a Funeral 2.0 doesn’t improve on its source material: It’s a scene-for-scene, gag-for-gag Xerox | 5 | |
ScreenIt C. Fuchs Even if I had never seen the original, I doubt I would have found much of the offering as funny, let alone hilarious. | 7 | |

Rottentomatoes tomatometer Tomatometer It's amusing and it assembles a talented cast, but Neil LaBute's surprisingly faithful remake of the 2007 Frank Oz dramedy ultimately falls short of the original. | 8 | |
