5 out of 5 stars Watch this movie...   August 6, 2008
I've never written a review on Amazon before, but felt it was necessary to start now as this movie was so funny. I've been let down by so many recent comedies that fail to live up to there hype - this is not one of them! If you love English humor (all right, mate???) and even if you don't - trust me you will still love this movie!

This is possibly one of the funniest movies I have ever seen. Completely unexpected. A must see!!


4 out of 5 stars Dysfunctional family farce   July 30, 2008
 6 out of 6 found this review helpful

When the father of a completely dysfunctional family dies, members of his extended family arrive to give him a dignified send off, but, with such a family, it turns into an English Drawing room farce. The oldest son,Daniel and his wife, live with the deceased and his wife and from the start, things go awry. The wrong body is in the coffin and sets the scene for all the other scenes. One of the younger family members is manufacturing and selling halucinogenic pills and unwittingly allows them to be mistaken for Valium with the expected results and one of the eldest members of the family is a cranky, bad tempered old devil who has an unfortunate episode of loss of bowel control which really made me heave! I didn't enjoy this movie as much as 4 weddings and a funeral, but the writing was excellent and the cast were first rate.


2 out of 5 stars A Movie About LSD   July 27, 2008
 0 out of 1 found this review helpful

This movie never failed to disappoint. It held quite a lot of promise, but little (no pun intended) of it came to fruition in this stretched almost comedy that deteriorates into a story of the effects of LSD on people's behavior. The rest of the story was not "traditional" British humor, because it would have been funny had it been so. This was predictable, sort of, in most every turn and the "surprise" guest and how it was played out was quite disappointing. The film tried and failed miserably to recreate the ambiance of "Four Weddings and a Funeral". The single funeral in the latter was better than the entirety of this film. Don't waste your time or money on this.


5 out of 5 stars FUNNY!   July 21, 2008
All I can say is I keep watching this with my spouse and it is hilarious. The acting is excellent, perfect casting, and particularly funny is Andy N. who plays Howard. All the acting is superb, I can't stop smiling thinking about it. The gag reel extra is also hilarious.
