The humour may not be wickedly black, but once in a while it's amusingly beige.

Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
You certainly wouldn't want to spend your last moments with this bunch, but a couple of hours watching them is enjoyable enough.
You need better dialogue than Berger supplies to help It's a Disaster make a liar out of its title.
The movie's funniest touches are quiet flashes of character, expertly timed and nimbly played by a deft ensemble. "It's a Disaster" is consistently funny, but you wince more often than you laugh out loud.
Berger never takes the camera more than a few yards outside the house, but that's fine; there's plenty going on inside, as characters carom off each other like billiard balls, slipping down pockets of misunderstanding and jealousy.
