perfect pick me up for these times

Rating: 9/10 (7 July 2020)

You either get Eurovision or you don't (the real thing that is).
As the say in the film, it's so much more than just winning. If you're expecting serious oscar winning stuff you will be disappointed but if you just want to have you spirits lifted with some good old fashioned silliness then this is an absolute tonic especially in these difficult times and especially if you miss Eurovision. This is the kind of film you will definitely return to and watch again - I'm already penciling it in for Christmas and next year's Eurovision night. It's silly, it's fun, it doesn't take itself seriously and most of all it's uplifting - a real feel-gooder (just like the real thing in fact).
