Waste of Money.
... View MoreThe performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.
... View MoreIt’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny
... View MoreStrong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.
... View MoreShockingly bad. Boring and unfunny with a screenplay fit for a poor school production ( and that's insulting school plays).. My friend walked out halfway through and I should have gone with him. One of the worst bits of screen writing I've ever come across
... View MoreYou settle into your cinema seat and with the the opening credits your transported to 4pm on a Saturday afternoon. The film has a heart warming story plenty of laughs, and a villain you can't wait to see get his just deserts. The wealth of British talent in this film is crazy, you could easily do a spin off with a few. What you get from this film is a damm good laugh. Worth a watch you won't be disappointed
... View MoreHard to believe with all the household names here,they could make such a duff film.I never laughed once but was annoyed a lot at how purile and immature the characters were.This would have been bad in the 80's.In 2018 its a dam right insult.At near 2 hours long the pace drags as you wait for some comedy or special moment that never happens.
... View MoreThis is one of those community spirited films in the manner of The Full Monty, and the Ealing comedies, that British film makers often do (but don't always do particularly well). A fairly formulaic plot of 'let's get the old gang back together for the one last tilt at the establishment' is brought to life by some good acting and some very likable, and in some cases eccentric characters. It's not full of belly laughs, but you can't help but have a smile on your face much of the time. Stephen Graham, Julian Sands, Steve Furst and Jill Halfpenny all turn in great performances (Jill Halfpenny in particular), and there's some lovely Yorkshire scenery to enjoy.
