      Audience Member I was always told that if I didn't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all...ahem Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Audience Member this movie is really goooodd Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review Audience Member The idea for the storyline is quite a good one, but unfortunately the film is ruined by some of the worst acting I have ever seen. The main character in particular seems to look and sound exactly the same no matter what his emotional state is at that time. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review Audience Member not as bad as i was expecting but no great movie by any means. there is a great cast here but why they're in this film is a mystery. not very funny jokes and awful sitcom music really grates. nice to see ollie reed in something though, he's baout the best thing in this mes :D Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Absolute rubbish. One of the worst films I've ever seen. It resembles some kind of bizarre student effort, with appalling production values, badly judged jokes, and a dreaful script. A dreary and amaturish performance by Chris Rea, is supported by a strong cast that is wasted. Watchable for the first 20 minutes, in the way a traffic accident is, but when the initial shock wears off you're left feeling intelectually violated. How this film ever got made is a mystery. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Audience Member Michael Winner's comedy version of 'Death Wish' (using similar techniques) set in the UK simply gets more embarressing as it goes along. It hardly raises a laugh and the plot just gets more ridiculous. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating

      Eddie Harrison film-authority.com …was derided on release as being in dubious taste, but there’s no sex, bad language or grossness, the whole notion of the film seems like a terrible idea and the execution is beyond bland… Rated: 1/5 Jan 23, 2024 Full Review Roger Moore Movie Nation A bomb rightly considered one of the worst British films ever made. Rated: 1/4 Aug 22, 2022 Full Review Read all reviews
