It's an honest attempt to tackle myriad family issues like sibling rivalry, infidelity and insecurities within relationships, but by the time it's done, it just feels like a long drag.

Rated: 2/5

Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN)

Even though the movie is a mere 96 minutes, it feels much longer. Writer-director Doug Bremner needed to accelerate the pacing to really make the movie gel.

Rated: 1.5/4

The film keeps a steady comedic tone from beginning to end, and it humorously tackles some easily relatable topics such as family issues, childhood traumas, infidelities and old siblings rivalries.

Rated: 6/6

It doesn't promise much and isn't a complete mess either. It offers a few laughs whilst trying not to be chaotic with several characters to follow.

Rated: 5/10

Watch this indie gem for a good time!I had a blast watching Doug Bremner's "Inheritance Italian Style", he also appears as the postman in the film. Though the film was shot in Atlanta, I thought it's shot in Italy. The estate, grape vines, and the farmland are all very quaint. The decor is on point. This is an independent film made possible by the director's resources and Atlanta film making initiatives. Characters are dysfunctional and fun. Get this film into your list and watch with your family!

This is the worst movie since Ed Wood left the business. The writing was bad; the direction was awful; the actors should find some other work; and the set didn't look anything like Italy.
