Catherine Tate's iconic character Joannie Taylor AKA Nan hits the big screen as she goes on a wild road trip from London to Ireland with her long-suffering grandson Jamie to make amends with her estranged and dying sister Nell. Through a series of flashbacks, we see the young sisters fall in love with the same handsome GI during World War 2 and how the consequences of this love triangle shaped Nan into the cantankerous old b*****d she is today. Militant vegan arsonists, Australian rugby teams, all-night raves, and crazed cops on motorbikes all make for a proper day out. Hilarious, action-packed, and surprisingly moving, this film is a love letter to outrageous, outspoken old ladies everywhere.

I thought it was brilliant with her excellent comments it could have maybe used some more of the bad language we are used to in Nan

The Nan Movie is good fun. Is it groundbreaking? No. Did I smile whilst watching it? Yes. Catherine Tate is amazing as ever. The ending had me teary eyed. 2/5.

It's a pointless movie but that makes it different, it's something you wouldn't expect, hillarious and new, critics who rate it low only view from a professional side, what the norm is, the miss the fact that it's a new concept, funny and something I'd recommend.

This is a character thats had its time, theres just nowhere particularly interesting to go, particularly when you stretch it to an hour and a half movie.

Rated: 1/5

Guardian

A truly horrendous and depressing film about Catherine Tate’s sweary old-lady character from her sketch show, in a storyline stretched out to a brutal hour and a half.

Rated: 1/5

Culture Mix

Catherine Tate created the obnoxious elderly character Joanie 'Nan' Taylor for short skits on her BBC comedy series The Catherine Tate Show. The Nan Movie is the semi-torture of having to spend an entire road trip with this dreadful character.

Alex Saveliev

Film Threat

What’s the point of it all? What does The Nan Movie want the audience to feel since it’s clearly not laughter? All that ends up lingering post-credits is slight trepidation, a faint feeling of despair for humanity.

Rated: 3/10

Besides Tate, the biggest draw might be a co-screenplay credit by “Ted Lasso” writer/co-star (and current Hercules) Brett Goldstein
