One of the worst movies I've ever seen

Just perfect...

Very interesting film. Was caught on the premise when seeing the trailer but unsure as to what the outcome would be for the showing. As it turns out, it was a very good film.

It is not only a funny movie, but it allows a great amount of joy for anyone who watches it.

I saw this film in Boston at a film festival. Wasn't going to go because it was raining, but I'm really glad because it was soooo well done. I told my family about this and some friends and now we're waiting for the release. When will it come out? My Armenian friend (my date) laughed at all the Armenian family stuff. The cast was freakin perfect and everyone of them made me laugh at some point. For a PG13 comedy, it KILLED and the audience loved it. The blue dress scene at the school was brilliant! The Armenian actor Vahik playing Uncle Rafael also played his son and he blew me away. He was there with his producers and answered questions. He will be discovered because of this film. John Michael Higgins was funny too.

I caught an early screening of "My Uncle Rafael" and loved it. It was refreshing to see an Armenian/American family portrayed on the big screen. How original! Turns out Kim Kardashian isn't the only Armenian in America! Who knew! I can't say enough about Missy Pyle and John Michael Higgins. These two together are comedy GOLD. Vahik Pirhamzel did an excellent job portraying two characters. This type of device usually takes me out of the movie but I kept forgetting it was one actor in two roles. It was also amazing to see Anthony Clark again! All you "Yes Dear" fans will be delighted. This movie was done with a shockingly low budget and I never would've guessed it. This is a great date and/or family movie. Hearwarming, charming and laugh out loud funny. Loved it!

Despite an unlikely sitcom scenario of an Armenian fish WAY out of water who winds up in a typically-dysfunctional American family, My Uncle Rafael is packed with charm. A talented cast headed by writer-actor Vahik Pirhamzei delivers consistent laughs, smiles, and moments of culture-clashing nervous excitement. John Michael Higgins gives a laugh-out-loud performance as a scumbag husband/attorney you'll love to hate -- if this were a bigger studio movie, he would be getting huge buzz off this performance for sure. Doe-eyed Rachel Blanchard is a pleasure to watch as well; the camera loves her. Well worth grabbing on cable or DVD.

I was lucky enough to attend a screening of My Uncle Raphael and could not stop laughing! The film contains a glimpse of the Armenian culture and how it can impact and shape the dynamic of a typical, and troubled, American family. Amazing production value and the acting was spot on. Comedic pros John Michael Higgins, Missi Pyle, and Anthony Clark were the perfect compliment to the very funny Vahik Pirhamzei, who does double duty, playing both the wise and charming Uncle Raphael as well as his hustler/entrepreneur son Hamo. All in all a very heart warming and funny story. I definitely recommend seeing this film if you are in the mood to laugh!
