Simon T May 25 Time has not been kind to Bad Behaviour, an aimless and almost plotless comedy devised by its director Les Blair. In Camden an Irish yuppie couple (Stephen Rea and Sinead Cusack) are drifting apart and contemplating a return to Dublin. Into their orbit comes the oleaginous Howard Spink (Philip Jackson), who convinces them that their house needs renovating, and introduces them to twin labourers Roy and Ray Nunn (Phil Daniels). There are individually hilarious scenes, mostly involving Spink and the Nunns, but the Rea/Cusack sequences are very listless and exasperating, and Blair has indulged both them and John Altman, whose jazz score spreads like measles through far too many scenes.

It does drag a bit in parts, but overall it flows well. See more 02/02/2007 6.5/10. What makes the film work is the cast, especially Stephen Rea and Sinead Cusack.
