This movie did have some proper comics doing the leads- Idle and Coltrane, and some of the other main characters did a good job in their roles. Faith and the two Sister Marys were great, as was the mature presence and good acting of Mother Superior
Didn't like the casting of the two gangsters boss (Mr Casey)though- he was too young, softly spoken, and without the real look of a hard crime boss.
The story took some time to get going, but ultimately had its moments. Some excellent and well delivered lines.
Most of the comedy worked well, though I didn't appreciate Faith's near blind state without glasses.
The version I saw was only on DVD made 4x3 for some reason, so it looked more like a TV movie.
It's a low budget British comedy. Shame there was no sequel.
