A nice, unthreatening diversion

I was pleasantly surprised by the film. Let's face it; the premise doesn't sound particularly appealing when having to hand over money for a the night's flick, but it had an easygoing nature that wins one over. There were no moments that I found uproarious, and I doubt any that I'll remember the next day, but this doesn't fail as a nice diversion. What I found funny was watching it here in Peking with my Chinese girlfriend who never understands anything I like. I told her there was a plot- three guys have to bring back some weed to London. Hardly satisfying for her. There is no mugging going on here for the camera which I'd been expecting after reading a number of the comments. I do take exception however to comparisons with Withnail and I; not in the same league, and I doubt was it intended to. www.imperialflags.blogspot.com

Absolute twaddle!

This is one of the worst films I have ever seen. It's not objectionable or offensive, it's just very, very poor. The plot is trying to be a British Easy Rider, but it misses all its marks. It wants to be a druggie cult movie but demonstrates laughable ignorance of that world. Phil Daniels performance is especially risible. His attempt at acting high is just pathetic. I would avoid this like the plague or expected to be bored out of mind. I can honestly say I didn't laugh once during the entire movie. I can only hope that the UK stops making this kind of'comedy' as it reflects poorly on the country as a whole. Apparently my review is to short purple monkey dishwasher purple monkey dishwasher

an unexpected treasure

I was not expecting much from this movie, but was very pleasantly surprised, as it is light and funny and very well observed. The central trio of deadbeat bikers were surprisingly likable as they staggered and clowned their way through their drug-centred trip to Wales. The humour was gentle and subtle, as indeed were the three characters (witness their sympathetic treatment of the little old lady shopkeeper). The atmospherics of rural Wales were captured perfectly, and the soundtrack was very well chosen. Cleverly and carefully scripted, with great attention to detail - I have never seen such a realistic portrayal of alternative culture - I felt I was there with them. Very light in touch and full of fun - not what you might expect from a movie about bikers and drugs. A delight on all fronts, and difficult to criticise, though I thought the last two scenes were a bit lame - the film should have ended when they left Wales. But overall, an unexpected treasure of a film.
