The Curse (2022– )
7/10
Fun but flimsy
20 March 2022
Many of the 'People Just Do Nothing' crew come back together for retro-crime comedy drama 'The Crash'. Personally, I just love Allan Mustafa, his character here is rather different to MC Grindah but just as hapless and still very funny. But the semi-realism of the former series is absent here, with a ropey plot that pays homage to the history of dodgy British gangster movies more than it says anything about real life. The secondary characters are also somewhat flimsy, although not without some laugh-inducing lines. With short episodes, the whole series is no longer than a typical movie; maybe it would have been more effective if written as one.
