MafiaMamma Review: Toni Collette Is Perfect As An Unexpected Mob Boss
There are some movies that, just from the premise alone, sound like they'll be a blast. Catherine Hardwicke's new film Mafia Mamma is one such title, and it certainly leans into the silliness of its central conceit. In some ways, it's like wish fulfillment for anyone who has felt severely underappreciated in life, provided they don't mind some illegal activities.
Despite the bloody politics at play — for the Balbanos are embroiled in a war with another crime family — Mafia Mamma is funny, never losing sight of the silliness of its premise. Special credit should be given to Francesco Mastroianni and Alfonso Perugini as Aldo and Dante, Kristin's bodyguards who frequently steal scenes with their humorous antics. Mafia Mamma leans into the comedy at play here, though it seems less interested in the specifics of Kristin's situation.
