Overview
Primo and Secondo, two immigrant brothers, pin their hopes on a banquet honoring Louis Prima to save their struggling restaurant.
The film sets out to be a movie about family, tradition and food. Tucci and Shalhoub have a fantastic chemistry and their relationship is at the heart of the movie. I don’t know if everything in the movie worked, but it was done well enough that I had a good time watching it. I thought that the fantastic final scene really brought together so much of what we had seen earlier in the movie.
