Alan Partridge: Alpha Papa (2013)
10 out of 10
I thought that this wasn't going to be as funny as the TV series as film adaptations never are.
To be frank (i'm not named Frank BTW) - it was hilarious. Cinema was packed at the 21:30 showing (full of men with a few women that had been dragged along - i bet they actually loved it really) and everyone was laughing out loud and tittering every couple of minutes.
The plot worked - initially i thought it wouldn't be able to maintain itself for the films length but it was like an awesomely long episode of Alan. Alan's character actually has enough weight for several films and more interesting formats i think. Alan Partridge the Musical - i would go and see - and i hate musicals.
True brilliance and genius from those who know Alan's mind inside out.
Long live King Alan. The quality shines through - far better than Gervais et al.
