isla s @RT89656869 Sep 3, 2022 This is a short, amusing and entertaining film - a bit like a long TV program, very much of the 'Mr Bean' style of comedy (i.e. visual/slapstick based and with little scripted dialogue). It has a good cast and it's worth a watch if it comes on and sounds of interest to you, I'd say, so yes, I'd recommend it.

See more Aug 12, 2014 One of the funniest films I have ever seen. My parents showed me this a while ago and I laughed so much that I started crying. While not being the most original comedy out there...wait a second, it doesn't need to! This is good ol' slapstick comedy at it's finest. This is an incredibly funny film that I think you all should watch! See more Jan 20, 2014 A glorious time machine back into 60's London, as Cooper and Sykes career around the suburbs losing and finding their plank. Some of the gags may feel a little cliche at this stage and to some extent you wonder if some of the opportunity of having two such verbal geniuses has been missed in this non-verbal movie, but the comic timing and visual laughs keep it very enjoyable. See more Jan 15, 2013 It's good but the original black & white short is an absolute masterpiece. See more Read all reviews
