A brilliant comic hit

Rating: 9/10 (7 September 2014)

(90%) A vibrant, although somewhat bleak in parts, yet very wonderful comedic cinematic treat. No film quite feels, looks and sounds quite like this, it's a real marvel. The direction is perfectly calculated and every single scene, or even shot, is finely framed to a tee. The performances from the vast and famous cast are sublime with Fiennes leading the way with a note perfect turn, and the writing is impeccable and very funny. The sheer quality throughout of every single aspect cannot be denied by even the most fussy of film fan. This comes highly recommended to anyone in favour of quality fimmaking in their comedy, and I cannot wait to see this again.
