      Audience Member Margaret & David (of the Movie Show) would commit suicide live on air reviewing this. With one shrill squeal Margaret is launched backwards out of her chair by the impact of the shotgun in her mouth. David uses a few metres of the 'Back in business' reel tape to hang himself. It's that BAD! Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member SHORTER THAN I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE. BUT A GR8 FILM WITH AN EXCELLENT CAST! Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member Not as bad as I thought it would be. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Audience Member Oh dear. Oh dear oh dear. Poor characters, and an awful storyline. Even Brian Blessed's presence couldn't save this, but I noticed he was reading his script from the bits of paper he had all the time. Dennis Waterman was quite funny though. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/23/23 Full Review Audience Member It is no wonder this little known British Film crept under the radar of almost every film lover in the UK. It is hard to fathem who decided that this film was worth spending the reported budget of 3 million on. The acting is absolutely terrible. I am not sure what I expected with the majority of the cast with a soap background. Some of the editing is just , to be honest, unforgivable. One scene involving Chris Barrie dressed up in disguise as Brian Blessed is my personal highlight. The producers did not think to actually Make Chris Barrie look like him, they actually Use Brian Blessed himself. Why did the producers not iron out mistakes like this in the editing room? All in all, a mess of a film - I do hope Chris Munro never Directs again, and sticks to his Sound Editing Skills. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member needed a bigger budget Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
