Best movie ever!

This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

Is Harry on the Boat is a hilarious tale of holiday reps in Ibiza, portraying the typical 18-30's holiday to a tee! The actors performances are brilliant, Danny Dyer as new rep Brad, introduced to the debauchery,including an interesting competition, as we are by the hilarious Wil Mellor as Greg. And of course we cant forget Marios 'Big Man!!!'.A brilliant film full of laughs that I would recommend to anyone! Though it is not without its serious moments the laughs come thick and fast. A summer movie to watch with mates that makes you dream of holidays, or even packing in your day job and signing up to be a rep yourself!!p.s The soundtrack generates much interest but an official soundtrack was never released unfortunately. However i do know that one of the songs is Jaydee- Plastic Dreams. its from my favourite bit of the film so check it out for yourself!!!

Whilst I can;t pretend to have experienced many of the things in the storyline, Sex, drugs, flirting, relationships, revenge, sun, alcohol etc. I can relate to some and appreciate that the others are good representations of the sorts of things that can happen.I found the feature length production to be greatly entertaining and full of well acted scenarios creating a good sense of what it could be like to have a lucky lifestyle of a young holiday rep.The only fault I could give is that they only made a one off, based on the book. there was so much scope for at least a mini series of say 6 one hour follow up stories.Nice scenery, nice bodies, fun story. Great location.

When I saw the ad for this on TV I was expecting another silly Sky One show about Brits in Ibiza but what I got was a really funny and entertaining 2 hours! It was a great show and I would imagine it to be realistic in terms of what those holiday reps get up to when they're supposed to be working. The characters were really good from the poncy loverboy Mario to the good hearted Brad and they were characters that you cared about and were interested in how things would turn out for them. I thought this was going to be a weekly series so I'm a bit disappointed that it was only a once off but I won't complain as it was the best bit of TV I've seen in a while!

I had read the book and that was a good read. The film had the usual cast you'd expect, a mixture from Human traffic, Hollyoaks, Eastenders and Ralph Little made a cameo. It didn't really translate to film that well, as it didn't explain the characters and their relationships enough. However it was shot well, in a kinda quirky style not too original though. In summary watch it for a laugh but the book is a lot less superficial.
