A very funny film set in Northern Ireland in the 80's
By Jim from Bromsgrove UK , 30 Oct 2004[Highly rated reviewer]
Any film with Billy Connelly must be funny...well you don't see a lot of him and what you do he plays a nutter.
The film is set in trouble torn Belfast in the 80's and is about rival wig sales firms. Some great one liners and a film that will cheer you up if your feeling down or blue.- Was this review helpful to you?

(7)A side splitting comedy with dark underside
By cantthinkofone (2 reviews) from Inverness, Scotland , 21 Apr 2009An excellent comedy with a slightly darker underside. Two friends, one protestant and one catholic, set up a business together selling wigs. The film is based in Belfast during the height of the 'troubles' and the friends' struggle to establish themselves has to take place amidst strong feelings of sectarianism. A laugh out loud film but also a reminder of what life was like for people living under sectarian violence - probably comedy as could only happen in the UK.- Was this review helpful to you?

very weak
By a customer from Sheffield , 04 Aug 2008couple of laughs in this but a lot that was wasted. Mr Connolly seemed to be there only to put a name on the film.- Was this review helpful to you?

not bad but not great either
By a customer from Dundee, Scotland , 20 Jan 2007this was funny in parts and was similar to 'waking ned' but apart from the great belfast accents and clever little one-liners, it was mostly a so-so movie. fine for a rainy afternoon or lonely night in front of the telly...- Was this review helpful to you?
