So much comedy these days seems to skew towards the lewd and crude it is refreshing to see a couple of seasoned pros (Andy Garcia of The Untouchables, Godfather Pt 3 and City Island fame and Vera Farmiga of Source Code, Up In The Air and The Departed) enjoying themselves with endearing laughs.
At Middleton features the said stars as parents taking their kids to a college open day, but connecting and going off on a little campus tour of their own. Whether there are edgier moments in the film itself, or the tone of this cheery trailer corresponds with the rest of the film remains to be seen, but with Peter Riegert, Tom Skerritt and Farmiga’s kid sister Taissa fleshing out the cast, this looks like being a lot of unassuming, undemanding fun.
At Middleton has spent much of the past few months touring assorted film festivals and will get a limited theatrical release in the US early next year.
