Brilliant satire of 1980s Thatcherite Britain.the whole premise (yuppies being tricked into leterally, instead of figuratively, consuming each other and PAYING TOP DOLLAR FOR THE PRIVILEGE) totally captures the spirit of the time. Okay, so Norman Stone (in The Times) sniffily dismissed it as "Riddled With Left-Wing Bias"; of COURSE it is! That's the whole POINT! Also riddled with cameo blink-and-you'll-miss-them appearances; anyone spot Sandie Shaw as a diner? Best one of all: Paul McCartney as a guest being thrown out of the Buckingham Palace banquet, protesting "I'm with the group!"...be honest, haven't we all wanted to do that? When is it going to be released on DVD?
