London, 1969 - two 'resting' (unemployed and unemployable) actors, Withnail and Marwood, fed up with damp, cold, piles of washing-up, mad drug dealers and psychotic Irishmen, decide to leave their squalid Camden flat for an idyllic holiday in the countryside, courtesy of Withnail's uncle Monty's country cottage. But when they get there, it rains non-stop, there's no food, and their basic survival skills turn out to be somewhat limited. Matters are not helped by the arrival of... (Full plot summary below)

Movie Reviews

BBC.com - 10/10 by Nev PierceWithnail & I has an air of authenticity only reality could give, and Robinson could only tell MacKerrell's story once. There could never be another Withnail.
Financial Times - 10/10 by Martin HoyleA modern classic? A brilliant vignette of a certain time and attitudes? A self-indulgent jeu d'esprit? One thing is certain: Richard E. Grant touched greatness.
Esquire Magazine - 10/10 by Paul SchrodtCertainly the funniest and possibly the truest comedy about male friendship.
Total Film - 10/10 by Neil SmithHas any screenplay combined so many quotable lines with such tear-jerking pathos or blatant homophobia?
Total Film - 10/10 by Simon KinnearA career high for all concerned, including '80s British cinema.
Filmcritic.com - 10/10 by Christopher NullBest known for launching the underexposed Grant's career. And for being severely overrated.
Guardian - 10/10 by Peter BradshawIt had a miraculously literate script whose every line deservedly became a quotable classic and the film boasts a once-in-a-lifetime combination of perfect performances from Paul McGann and Richard E. Grant as the loafing actors heading for a terrible bucolic weekend, Ralph Brown as drug-dealing Danny and Richard Griffiths as predatory Uncle Monty.
The Spectator - 10/10 by Hilary MantelEvery line is sharp, and the whole film finely judged and well paced.
Chicago Sun-Times - 10/10 by Roger EbertConveys the experience of being drunk so well that the only way I could improve upon it would be to stand behind you and hammer your head with two-pound bags of frozen peas.
The Telegraph - 10/10 by Martin ChiltonGrant's delivery of mordant mutterings is superb. The lines, from Bruce Robinson's semi-autobiographical script, are an oddball joy and mostly involve drink and the inevitable hangover.
