  A curate's egg
  
  This had the potential to be a really funny movie. The result is some rather weak set ups but some well executed slapstick comedy. Worth watching.

  Boring....
  
  I lasted less than 10minutes, so it got switched off and I watched Jamie Oliver on TV instead - much more riveting!.

  Dreadful Movie
  
  With the cast involved I expected much more. Very poorly directed. Why Clooney got involved ia nyones guess.

  The script of this film is actually quite colorful, probably as it was adapted from stage. However the production on film falls somewhat short of its potential... read more »

  Cohen-esque
  
  This had a lot of the ingredients which make Cohen Brothers so good. No quite on their level but a good deputy for fans of their work.
