Very weird.

Rating: 1/10 (19 November 2009)

I guess I should have done more research before watching this, but I presumed it was going to be a lighthearted romp through a little discussed period of British history. Apparently the history wasn't really there, so it somehow became a strangely surreal mockumentary with no coherence or point...? The characters alternated between sincerity and farce, and the director didn't seem able to make up their mind about what kind of film they were making. Perhaps the actors hold some responsibility for lacking appropriate comedic timing, but somehow I feel like the bulk of the blame lies with the script. We stopped halfway through, glad to be done with it. What an odd, disjointed movie.
