Easter Sunday-480P

I was expecting similar funny stuff from jokoy as what ive seen on social media, youtube clips etc... but i was expecting too much from this rookie actor who probably havnt done a real movie acting in his life! Poor acting, poor script and jokoy is trying soo hard in his acting (maybe on the stage as a stand up comedia but not on the movie). Whats worst, he made the church his stage for his stand up comedian thingy which is not everyones cup of tea (specially from a catholic filipino). As for the comedy side.. it might get some laugh on those who lived in the states but definitely not from uk, middle east or australia... i really cant relate that much even living half of my life outside philippines.... I wont recommend this movie.

I enjoyed this a lot, it wasn't a perfect movie but it did make me laugh more than not. The tacked on action plot wasn't necessary but the family story was well told. I thought the humor was natural and not forced and the jokes landed a majority of the time. I was in a theater with about a dozen other people and the laughter was consistent throughout the film. Humor is subjective, what I find funny you might not. I would recommend it.

I'm a HUGE Jo Koy fan and was really looking forward to his first feature film, but unfortunately it wasn't great. If you've never seen Jo's stand up act, you will likely enjoy this film a bit more since many of the jokes in the movie are recycled from his shows. The supporting cast was good, with a great cameo by Lou Diamond Phillips, but I only really chuckled a few times. The script was predictable, the story forced, and some of the jokes felt like they were added at the last minute to fill in time. 4 stars for the supporting cast and the few giggles, but I wanted at least one big belly laugh like I get watching Jo Koy perform his stand up. I wish I liked this more.

I believe a year or so ago, a female second cousin of mine had introed me to Jo Koy, a Filipino comedian, on YouTube. I remember laughing quite a bit at his material. So now he's starring in this movie about someone like himself dealing with trying to get a part in a TV show while also having to visit his Mom and relatives for the title dinner. And he has a teen son from a mixed divorce to boot! There's more than what I just mentioned but I'll just say that having seen this with my mom, whose birthday today is, my sister and some friends of both of them mostly of the same race as the above comedian, it struck a chord concerning familial relations and cultures related to my parents' home country and their melting in current society of their adopted homeland. I, myself, only knew of this movie's existence because of the cast appearing in an ep of "Family Feud". And it surprised me when looking up this film online to find out that both Tia Carrere and Lou Diamond Phillips, who I knew from Wayne's World and La Bamba, respectively, were both in it. (I didn't pay complete attention to the "FF" ep so I don't know if either one were contestants on it.) Anyway, Jo Koy does some of his funny stand-up bits and while there were some contrived situations, there was some truth here and there concerning Filipino culture. Really, I'll just say me and my family and friends really enjoyed Easter Sunday and leave it at that! (Edit to add: I just found out on YouTube that the Easter Sunday cast on "Family Feud" consisted of Jo Koy's real-life clan competing against that of Lydia Gaston's, who played his mother in the film.)

The accent was too much, it almost seems like they've lost the sense of this movie, it's a wrong representation of a Filipino family, not everyone from the Philippines that lives here in the US are like that, they are a disappointment, was a big fan of Jokoy with his Netflix but this movie was a big flop, and he should just stick to doing stand ups, an instant fame with his instant head swilling up.
