Critic Reviews

Culture shock often proves the stuff of comedy, but the sight of a silver-studded, sombrero-topped mariachi band breaking into a rousing rendition of "Hava Nagila" transports diversity into the realm of the surreal.Full Review

Ronnie Scheib
Variety

Any comedy that can combine death, abortion, Jewish ritual and a mariachi band without curdling into complete lunacy deserves a modicum of respect. In the case of My Mexican Shivah, more would be pushing it.Full Review

The New York Times

Kvetches its way through an insipid vision of cross-cultural conflict.Full Review

Village Voice

All this story needs is a mariachi band to walk in on all the overwrought mourners. Oh, wait ... yep. There it is.Full Review
