Richard 'Rubbish' Curtis sinks to new low.

Rating: 1/10 (25 May 2013)

Heard of Richard Curtis? Wrote the excruciatingly sentimental Four Weddings, Love Actually, War Horse, Mr. Bean's Holiday, etc., you know. Hangs about with Ben Elton. Got an MBE and a CBE for services to entertainment. Whatever service to entertainment 'The Boat That Rocked' provided is not apparent from the movie itself. Unless of course it's supposed to be for people who've had frontal lobotomies who have difficulty processing plots, dialogue or acting. Bad Cliff Richard movies are not dead, they live on with Curtis.
Everyone who had any part in this mawkish pile of badly written, badly directed, stupid, puerile, patronising, preposterous, poxy, pretentious, unadulterated, indigestible tripe should be thoroughly ashamed of themselves and should you, dear reader, be a movie executive, you should cross them off your Christmas card list forthwith.
