BAD SHABBOS 
dir. Daniel Robbins, Zack Weiner, USA, 2024, 84 min
A cracking comedy straight from Manhattan. David's parents invite the parents of his fiancée, Meg, for a Shabbat dinner. It will be their first meeting, and to complicate matters, the guests are Catholics, not Jews, so everyone must really try hard to avoid gaffes and awkwardness. But with a little goodwill from both sides, can anything really go wrong? The answer is obvious, yet the screenwriters still manage to surprise with a cascade of improper gags and plot twists, which naturally must include the unexpected appearance of a corpse that needs to be hidden. Another comedy about neurotic, upper-middle-class New York Jews? Even the well-known classic of the genre, in his prime, would envy the form achieved by the creators of Bad Shabbos. Plus, there's rapper Method Man from the Wu-Tang Clan, who, as the doorman, goes out of his way to steal the entire show. This film takes no prisoners!
