I absolutely loved this movie, I go to the cinema way too much and I'd not heard as much laughter for quite a while, yeah some of the humour is silly and maybe a bit predictable if you can see the set ups but I'd say this was some of the best comedic timing since naked gun and big LN (RIP)
Whilst the story was genuinely good and after watching a recent Alan Carr documentary a lot of the details I was familiar with, like the movie clause etc, it was just a very easy going light hearted fun film.
I saw one review on here saying it used split screen too much, I went in expecting it to be every minute, it's a few times for mere seconds and completely fits in with the film.
Two awesome films set in old town London over the last year after the exceptional Last night in Soho. The setting, cars, just everything was good.
The acting was all good, chemistry was really good and fans of This is England get to see a reunion which was fun.
However I feel the difference between a 7/8 or a 10 is all down to one person Saoirse Ronan (sorry if it's misspelled) she was so good, her face, she played daft so well, you didn't think of her as stupid, more naive and innocent, she had some lines in this film which genuinely broke some people in the audience. So unbelievably likeable and endearing it was a great performance. Thinking back it actually felt like she was given 90% of the comedy whilst others had small moments she was the one who delivered. It wasn't overbearing, it didn't take away from scenes. It was tonally perfect and just innocent spoof kinda humour. There was a surname joke that took me back to airplane! And an arrest straight from naked gun! I just loved it.
If you're feeling a bit down or just fancy a lighthearted film which is an easy watch this is it.
Awesome! Whilst I give it a 10 I don't mean every aspect is perfect! But that feeling when you leave and are still smiling! That's what this gives.
