Tied for the best movie I have ever seen

One of those movie experiences that is so good it makes you realize you've been grading everything else on a curve.

It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

A Touch of Cloth is great fun, brings me back to the golden days of spoofs and slap stick comedy. Hotshot, Aeroplane, Naked Gun.. etc. I has very clever writing and word play. Well done Mr. Brooker you did it again. Re-watch value is really good as a lot of things happens in the background so keep your eyes peeled for some jems.The acting is good and the dead pan expressions from John Hannah go well with the comedy.It a really good laugh and I would recommend it to anyone who is up for some silliness.

I have only one complaint about this show - they don't make enough of them! Each and every episode has been a comedic tour de force, with everyone in the show - every member of the cast - being so straight-faced that, if the lines were not utter farce, you'd think you were watching a genuine drama.The brilliant John Hannah gives us a demonstration of his versatility. From his role as Batiatius in Spartacus, he now gives us the 'Cracker' type character, only with a script of pure hilarity, almost from the word go. In every scene there are also subtle little bits and pieces - signs, pictures and props - that only serve to lend to the surreal, silly goings-on behind the hard exteriors of the characters.It's one of the best spoof shows I've seen in a long time, and please, please, can they offer up more?

Being a fan of Police Squad I have to say that I found much of this show cringe worthy as it essentially tried (and failed) to remake a classic.Some of the jokes were funny and some were not, some of the visuals were funny and some were not but one thing they all had in common is that I'd seen and heard them all before… This show would have been very funny had it been original but if you really want to watch such comedy then watch Police Squad… or Sledge Hammer for that matter.is this 10 lines yet IMDb?

Unlike radeburger2000 I am actually going to criticise this show, not rant about how bad it is without explaining why. He says he can't write a good, funny movie; he can't write a good, insightful review either.First of all A Touch of Cloth was not 10/10, as other reviewers have said, nor was it 1/10. It was a mix of some superb jokes, some good ones, and some duds. When you watch it remember, do not take it seriously. I found it did such a good job of LOOKING like a cop drama a part of me was trying to take it seriously, forgetting that this was just supposed to be silly and fun no matter how serious it was trying to seem.I would say the pacing of the jokes was too quick at some points, barely giving one a chance to process one joke before another comes. Also the number of visual gags, some of which you might miss first time, are numerous. You CAN have too much of a good thing but overall I found the jokes more satisfying than not.I wouldn't say it felt as natural as films like Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz, Naked gun, which it shares similarities with, sometimes appearing a bit smug in its knowledge of the subject it was parodying.BUT as I said, overall I found it satisfying with more jokes hitting than not. The actors did a good job and like I said, it looks like a very convincing cop drama. I just hope they don't overload the next reported episodes and give the jokes a chance to breath
