Mixed Reviews for Toni Collette's 'Mafia Mamma' Mob Comedy

"Mafia Mamma" is a female-empowerment comedy film that follows the story of Kristin Balbano Jordan (Toni Collette), a working mom who discovers she is next in line to run Italy's Balbano clan, an organized crime family. The film is a fun fish-out-of-water farce with a clever female-empowerment kick that makes inspired use of Collette's talent. The movie celebrates a middle-aged woman's libido and shows how women might run such an organization.
