'About My Father' Review: A Delightful Love Letter to Family

There's this belief that the studio comedy is slowly dying. While only 10 years ago we'd be greeted each weekend with a brand-new studio comedy, now they feel far and few in between. The summer 2023 movie season feels like the first in a long time that harkens back to those days with films like No Hard Feelings, Strays, The Machine, and Joy Ride all making their way to the big screen. Then there's About My Father, a new film starring two-time Academy Award winner and legend of the screen Robert De Niro alongside Sebastian Maniscalco in his first starring role. If you haven't heard of Maniscalco, there's a good chance that the next person you talk to does as he's become one of the biggest names in the stand-up comedy scene.
