Review of Hamlet 2

Hamlet 2 (2008)
7/10
Entertaining Comedy
11 January 2009
This is a well made comedy with some really funny lines in it. Steve Coogan's first proper American comedy is a success IMO and he delivers a great comedy performance as per usual. Not the best comedy every made but its one that made me laugh out loud and there hasn't been many of those recently (with the exception of a few Seth Rogen vehicles). Think Summer Heights meets South Park with a splash of Jerry Springer the musical. Unfortunately due to its lack of big names and sometimes controversial jokes this won't do as well as it probably should which is a shame considering some of the poor comedies that makes it to the big screen these days just because it has a current A lister in it e.g. Drillbit Taylor. I recommend it to anyone who likes Coogans TV work (Partridge, Saxondale etc). Hamlet 2 is def worth a watch even if its on DVD. I tell no lies
