Leave your thoughts about Carry On Cruising.
| User ReviewClaire EOne of the greatest Carry Ons with fantastic performances from all, probably Kenneth Connors best! And is it just me or does that captains uniform really suit Sid James? lol maybe he was a sailor in a previous life lol |
| User ReviewBarry LI love all the Carry on films, and this one has to be my favourite. First one to be filmed in colour.Its silly, cheesy and thats whats great about the Carry on films. Kenneth Connor was my favourite of the Carry On cast and is just as great in this as all the rest, as the ships doctor.The Carry On films are a great English institution! May many other future generations enjoy them as well. |
| User Reviewhannah bthis is a really really really funny film and has some crazy and stupid stuff which anyone has to laugh at,i love this film and can always watch it. |
| User ReviewSean ZI managed to get a large box set of these movies and I loved them all. Carry on cruising was my favourite though. :) |
| User ReviewKristina BSimply the best, the first of the 'Carry On's to be filmed in colour. They do say 'The worst things happen at sea'. I just love that lil' old lady, especially when she's playing ping pong with Kenneth Williams. Some hilarious lines and one of my all time favourite films. |
| User ReviewPrivate UGreat fun with all the classic Carry On team |
| User ReviewGemma Sone of the best in the series-the ping pong scene is hilarious! |
| User ReviewKarsh DFirst Carry On in colour - and it's a belter. Sid James gives a first class performance but Esma Cannon steals the show. The bar scene with Esma and Dilys Laye is hilarious. |
| User ReviewRichard VAlthough missing some of the regular cast members (Joan Sims and Charles Hawtrey), this Carry On is one of the better ones in the series. The script is sharp with some great gags deftly delivered by the ensemble. Sid James plays the experienced Captain of a cruise liner in charge of a crew with some inexperienced new recruits. This is the perfect setup for a series of disasters and the film duly delivers. Cruising is one of the earlier Carry Ons (first in colour) and maybe because of this, everyone seems fresh and on top of their game. The editing complements the script and the cast seem to have an energy which sometimes flags later in the series. The newer cast members keep the mix interesting and stand out performances from the wonderful Esma Cannon, Kenneth Williams (shower scene !) and Sid James combine to produce one of the definitive Carry Ons. |
| User ReviewQueen MVery funny movie from the classic carry-on team! |
