Robert De Niro and Michelle Pfeiffer in---The Family (2013)

                                   

Fred Blake/Giovanni Manzoni (Robert De Niro) a Mafia Boss who was an important part of the mob has informed to the CIA about the entire organization. Therefore---Fred and his wife Maggie (Michelle Pfeiffer) their son Warren (John D’Leo) and Daughter Belle (Dianna Agron) are relocated to Normandy, France and are using the last name of Blake in lieu of Manzoni.

Their CIA contact is Agent Stansfield (Tommy Lee Jones) who tries to keep them safe with strict instructions to them---that is was necessary to live---a quiet existence. But poor Agent Stansfield ends up relocating the Manzoni Family time and time again.

Why is this happening? Because they still solved all their issues the “Family” way---and that means in violent loud commotions---nothing is done by this family in a silent mode. With all their issues and trying to fit in to a society of a normal family life style---this is a funny movie.

And of course with their uncivilized behavior---the mob is hot on their trail---so this pushes Agent Stansfield to work constantly in trying to keep them safe. The family is relocated time and time again---staying just leaps ahead of the old cronies from the mob---who are sent as hit men to assassinate the Manzoni Family.

 Agent Stansfield tries to drum it into their heads to please live quietly so the neighbors cannot gossip and spread the news where you are located. This is a sinisterly funny film and the acting is great---of course. With Robert De Niro, Tommy Lee Jones and the beautiful Michelle Pfeiffer no one would expect---anything but the best.

I am marking my calendar for September 13^th 2013 for the premiere of “The Family.” I hope you will too.
