Absolutely FUN! A Marriage of James Bond & Pulp Fiction

Rating: 9/10 (22 March 2015)

With a movie of this quality, it is quite easy to set aside technical- physical impossibles and just settle in for the ride. It was so over the top funny that the technical goofs only made it more hilarious than not. The music was powerfully fun, the acting and Brit street lingo was great, and quite simply, I had to watch it several times because I kept recommending it to friends and family. It only slowed down--for me--during the last "phase" of 20% or so. The scene at the backward church in Kentucky was epic!
Set in the UK's London, the street lingo the Brits (apparently) use was entertaining all by itself and I learned a few more expressions from our British friends. The two-finger'd "flick-off" the Brits use was also accurate--allegedly originating from the British Longbow shooters of the middle-ages who were so hated by their enemies, having their bow fingers cut off was just the beginning of their punishment if captured. I watched the film in the USA and in Italy, though the Italian audiences seemed more muted in their response, perhaps because the type of humor (guns, bombs, etc.) doesn't get them as much?
