[D]eliberately off-kilter, cheerfully violent...with just enough moments of inspiration to warrant a recommendation...

Rating: 2/5 -- The Family casts the acting Goliath as a now all-too-familiar caricature of the parts that made his name. The result is a movie peppered with slapstick violence that plays at such a pitch as to nullify any of its possible potential. Full Review

Rating: 1/5 -- There was a time when De Niro seemed so ungraspable, so brilliant, it was as if he had some secret access to acting that nobody else could fully understand. Maybe in the end we asked too much of him. Full Review

THE FAMILY is a fish-out-of-water/buddy comedy/Mob flick.

Rating: 4/10 -- Whatever it is, this movie doesn't have it. In fact there is only one word I can think of to describe it: unredeemable. Full Review

It’s at its best in the brief moments when Besson plunges into complete, comic-book-panel unreality...

Rating: 2/5 -- Clearly, De Niro is happy to cannibalise his glorious past, but for those of us who love him, it's like sucking on old bones. Full Review

Product Description:

An American ex-Mafia boss and his family are transplanted to France through the Witness Protection Program, but draw the attention of underworld figures who are determined to see them dead in this darkly humorous action comedy starring Robert De Niro, and directed by Luc Besson. Brooklyn kingpin Giovanni Manzoni (De Niro) had it all until the day he became a snitch. Now no matter how many times Agent Stansfield (Tommy Lee Jones) relocates Giovanni and his family, danger is never far behind. When they blow their cover once again, Giovanni, his wife Maggie (Michelle Pfeiffer), and their two kids Warren (John D'Leo) and Belle (Dianna Agron) are shipped off to a sleepy village in France. It seems like the perfect place to escape the long arm of the lawless until the criminally inclined family resorts to their treacherous old ways, once again becoming a blip on the syndicate radar. Now the thugs are moving in, and they mean business. As the Manzonis use their unique set of skills to survive the relentless storm of bullets, bombs, and rockets, the citizens of this peaceful French village suddenly find themselves in the middle of an all-out Mafia war zone.
