Difficult where to start with this pig of a movie.... although it hasn't beaten the title of worse British movie ever (which I still believe 'Sex Lives of the Potato Men' will hold forever) it has little to recommend it.
I caught it on a movie channel, and was interested only because Chris Barrie was in it. As a huge Red Dwarf fan, I look forward to see the actors in that appear in other things. He shone in the Tomb Raider movies as the groovy butler Hilary, so when I sat down to watch this film I expected great things.
I certainly set myself up for a big fall. It comes to something that the only funny bits are the end credit bloopers.
It just looked like cheap tat, and I thought the British Film industry had left this sort of weak stuff behind (see previous comment about the Potato Men) but this just lets old Blighty down.
If any non Brit comes across this in the bargain bin or on a cable channel, don't judge us too harshly, we didn't know.... we are innocent.
We need more Sexy Beasts and Lock Stocks and less of this insipid stuff.
