| User ReviewAnton TI saw it back at the movie festival in Ghent and liked it up to a certain point. |
| User ReviewAsif KThe idea for the storyline is quite a good one, but unfortunately the film is ruined by some of the worst acting I have ever seen. The main character in particular seems to look and sound exactly the same no matter what his emotional state is at that time. |
| User ReviewDuncan Wnot as bad as i was expecting but no great movie by any means. there is a great cast here but why they're in this film is a mystery. not very funny jokes and awful sitcom music really grates. nice to see ollie reed in something though, he's baout the best thing in this mes :D |
| User ReviewDaniel OI was always told that if I didn't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all...ahem |
| User ReviewAndrew MOh dear! A strange looking cast list and you have to wonder why the likes of Olly Reed, Ben Kingsley and Bob Hoskins got caught up in this mess. Chris "dire" Rea gives one of the most inept performances your ever likely to see. |
| User ReviewRobb bThis was really a bad movie. Slow.. boring and even though it tried to be funny it failed.. |
