"The Finellis Movie" is a joyous romp, with a colorful cast of unforgettable characters, a mind-blowing storyline and fantastic music
Mark Janicello is both the comedic glue and the beating heart that holds this story together. Like a singing Rocky Balboa, he takes the beating life gives him but keeps standing back up to fight for his dreams. Janicello is ably aided and abetted by Timo Merkhoffer as his hilarious, foul-mouthed womanizer of a manager, and as his Russian Ex-wife Bianca Karsten is the perfect comic foil.
The rest of the cast is uniformly good. A special mention must be made for Kim Tatum as the Transgender Nightclub owner, Eva Gutierrez. The sequence with Janicello and Tatum is an unexpected twist in storytelling that proves "The Finellis " has more on its mind than just the 90-minutes of belly laughs it so ably delivers.
5 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
