Audience Member It's supposed to be a comedy, but it's more like a punch to the face. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Not a patch on The Life and Death Colonel Blimp but some laugh out loud moments. It has a slightly different point of view in that the protagonist is not misunderstood by instead misunderstanding. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/04/23 Full Review Read all reviews
