Rating: 7 out of 10, I’d forgotten how downright funny this movie is. Once I adjusted to the accents (about fifteen minutes in) there are so many just drop your beer and laugh out loud lines. The story of semi-lovable losers contending with bleak employment opportunities and resorting to stripping only to find themselves is too funny. One of the best scenes in cinema history has the lads waiting in line at the unemployment office and starting to subtly dance to the elevator music playing – classic. The last scene before he heads out to drop trou between Mark Addy and his wife is incredibly touching. While the concept is totally absurd it works because we can all see a town reacting this way to some of their own – too funny.
MVP: Wilkinson as Gerald the unlikely choreographer of the boys
