this film was perfectly good but had one major flaw which ruined it for me.
That is one of the characters comes up wit 'brilliant' idea to lobby cigarettes - put them back into film. So that they become popular and fashionable again. OK? No because ummmmmm.... aren't cigarettes already in films?
Fight Club, History Boys, Bridget Jones, Kiis Kiss Bang Bang...need I go on? With trend setting actors like Brad Pitt and Helen Bohman Carter smoking and making it seem cool, fun and sexy??
They even mention Brad Pitt in the film saying they should make him smoke and asking whetherhe can blow smoke rings well he can...in Fight Club and does in a lot of his films smoke!
Eithier this is the wort research in the world or they hoped that the audience would have been watching Shrek or Batman or Harry Potter but that's a stupid assumption as the audience that would go and watch a black humured comedy would have seen the films I mentioned before or others where they smoke.
