“Split decision: the islanders will love it, the mainlanders, well…u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eNo denying the heart behind this very local project. u0026quot;Whou0026#39;s Yer Father?u0026quot; is full of cheeky performances, brain-haired whodunit plot twists, Maritime lingo, self-depreciating jabs, and plenty of seafood. As a series of silly, slapstick skits it is clever comedy, as a full-fledged film, it lacks a singular vision, though there is great joy in playing spot the landmarks.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eSusan Kent and Chris Locke are right charming as a sleuthing couple mixed up in a lobster caper in Canadau0026#39;s smallest province. Everyone knows everyone, and everyone is an odd character. Fact? Fiction? The lines are blurry. Whatever the case, this movie is fun, and loaded with hilarious nuggets which unfortunately, never quite come together as a cinematic whole. Still as a proud Canadian, it is hard to not salute the effort, even dumb comedy has its place, and this is no doubt an absolute laugh riot in a rowdy theatre.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eu003culu003eu003cliu003ehipCRANK.u003c/liu003eu003c/ulu003e”
