I saw a test screening of this last night and really enjoyed it. Everyone was laughing along and really getting into it. 8/10

One to watch out for early next year vx

I went to see this at the Framestore tonight. It is a nice private screening where they always offer you drinks and crisps. There was a guest list for industry people and then a few of us, invited guests.

We had to sign an embargo, so can't say anything until the film is released! But I agree with valda, go and see. 8/10

Is this exclusively shown in Vues only? Just it is advertised as such.

Didn't rate this I'm afraid. Some funny moments, but far to few as the storyline didn't grab the attention being both derivative and very predictable. It's quite slow, not in itself a problem (I like slow films) but this just didn't have a strong enough story.

This was OK with a few hilarious moments but overall not as funny as I was expecting. Plus it felt really long for a 94 minute film. I think it is a solid 3 star effort. 6.5/10.
