Based on the British situation comedy Rising Damp, which aired on ITV from 1974 to 1978. Stingy landlord Rigsby (Leonard Rossiter) manages to scam his lodgers, arts student John Cooper(Christopher Strauli) and medical student Philip (Don Warrington) making both pay for a room they must share. Rigsby's favourite lodger, Miss Jones (Frances de la Tour) flirts with Philip much to Rigsby's annoyance and when new upper crust lodger Seymour (Denholm Elliott) arrives she falls completely under his spell. It seems Rigsby's love for her will forever be unrequited.

| User ReviewPaul Dexcellent - recently discovered rising damp - classic british comedy at its best. |
| User ReviewThe SThe TV show was a classic but spin off movies from British TV series are usually pretty bad - this one, however, is surprisingly good. The bigger budget allowed for some location scenes which did add a little that was absent from the TV show and the characters and traditions are generally treated with respect. Certainly no insult to the memory of a fine show. |
| User ReviewLee MProbably not the series by any stretch, but one gets the impression that enough of Rising Damp: The Movie approximates that marvelously funny show that those who love the original will no doubt enjoy this final go-around for the original cast, while newcomers might be spurred to seek out the original. |
| User ReviewAshley BBig screen retread of some of the show's finest moments. Inevitably, it's not as good as the TV series and the absence of Richard Beckinsale is deeply felt (as is a plot!). But it's a stronger effort than most sitcom spin-offs and there's plenty of chuckles along the way whilst the regulars (Rossiter, De La Tour and Warrington) are on fine form as always. |
| User ReviewSimon Rok spin off. same gags and no Richard Beckinsale. |
| User ReviewDesmond AAs stated in previous commets, Rising Damp the movie is just recycled material from the cult tv series. Watch the tv series and not the movie is my advice. |
| User ReviewSarah HFirst of all, I loved the show. But the movie is a fail. They basically recycled a ton of material from the show and made it unfunny. They seemed to have dismissed the actual events in the series' four seasons in favor of starting over from the beginning without really putting any originality into it. I think they just dusted off a few old scripts and plopped scenes from them into the movie. Very disappointing. Still, I recommend the show. It has a great ensemble cast and is actually funny! |
