The Family

The Family (2013) primarily elicits Humor due to its dark comedic premise of a mafia family struggling to adapt to witness protection while constantly reverting to their violent 'family' ways. This leads to significant Anxiety and Anticipation as viewers await their inevitable exposure and the consequences of their actions. Moments of Joy and Happiness arise from the successful (albeit unconventional) handling of local problems, while Surprise and Excitement are generated by unexpected violent outbursts and action sequences. The film also evokes Anger and a sense of the Disturbing from the family's brutal methods, balanced by Relief when they escape immediate danger.
