Seeing as this was a British offering, I'll describe it in British parlance - Absolute Shite.
I think the morons giving this high praise with their reviews were about as high as Ron Pearlman after taking that hit of LSD. It says "comedy". Who would have known? I didn't laugh once. It should have said "torture" because I was in a whole lot of pain for the duration. My wife was getting tired of the movie and kept telling me to fast forward it. At one point she got up to get some chocolate candy. When she came back to the couch, I asked her for a piece. She said only if I fast forward it. True story. Anyhow, its too bad because going into this I wanted it to be good. I like Pearlman and Ron Weasley. Like the late 60's early 70's scene - a lot of potential there. But then the director tried to make this a hybrid of a weird buddy flick mixed with Reservoir Dogs violence. Seriously, What The EFF??? As somebody else opined, the second half of the movie really falls flat, and I have to agree. Save your time and watch something better. Maybe Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone.
