7/10
Biting Comedy
13 January 2006
I really enjoyed this film as I was sitting, well almost squatting, in an small Toronto art-house cinema last night. On reflection the acting was wooden, the plot was extremely predictable and there was almost no chemistry between the leading actors.

However, none of these are reasons not to see the film itself which is, in parts extremely funny and the cinema we were in 'erupted' in laughter many times.

Being an exiled Londoner, the film, which is shot in Primrose Hill, really tugged at the heartstrings. The films stars a cacophony of British comedy luminaries, including the excellent Anthony Head (the librarian in Buffy) who shows off his hilarious dance moves at the wedding and Sue Johnson of The Royle Family.

If you like your humour dry and dark, see this.

I'll leave you with my favourite line slightly paraphrased "Sex with old men is like playing snooker with a rope"
