Most helpful review
Delightful, beautiful, charming and yet disturbing.
By Mr B. from Bristol England , 05 Dec 2005[Highly rated reviewer]
This is one of those lovely British films that evoke the best of Ealing type comedies. A gentle comedy about a vicar, his wife, his daughter, his son and their lovely sweet charming life in a delightful country village. That's what it feels like, except the daughter is a nymphomaniac, the wife is trying to have an affair and the vicar is played by Rowan Atkinson...so it's a wacky comedy then, except it isn't. Due to a wonderful restrained performance by Atkinson and a beautifully authentic performance by Kirsten Scot-Thomas, the film remains 'real'. Then enters Maggie Smith a a Mary Poppins type, who is wonderful, as is Maggie Smith..she has one little character flaw though, she 's a mass murderer...This is a lovely film , with superb performances a witty script, but somehow it's amorality leaves one a disturbing taste.- Was this review helpful to you?

Quite funny
By a customer , 19 Feb 2013Was quite funny, but didn't need the bad language and sex scenes. Some slapstick/unrealistic parts, which i don't usually like but this film got away with.- Was this review helpful to you?

Actual "LOL" moments
By a customer , 20 Sep 2012Such a fantastic film. I wasnt expecting alot from this film but was pleasantly surprised by it.
A great cast and an even better story line.
I had actual 'LOL' moments, I even re-played a few scenes twice.
A brilliant film. Well done to the producer.
Top marks from me!- Was this review helpful to you?

darkly comical
By cheesekake (1282 reviews) from uk , 30 Jun 2012this film isn't one of these in your face hilarious comedy's, its much more subtle than that.
