Fisherman's Friends: One and All

Continuation of an excellent film in which we once again follow the life of interesting and entertaining characters.

James Purefoy is absolutely brilliant in the role of Jim, easily transforming into the role of a bitter, but actually good-natured character who has a hard time coming to terms with his loss and turns to alcohol.

We follow his progression towards the realization that life simply goes on and that he has to come to terms with some things.

Some new characters appear and they are an excellent addition to the already well-known actors of this story. The film is different from most of today's films because it does not bore us with the usual lessons, but wants to entertain us and show us people with their flaws and virtues.

This is, after all, a movie that actually deals with normal people and their lives, who sometimes find themselves in unusual situations.

An interesting and entertaining continuation of the story about friends who found themselves in a position to become famous, but did not lose the most valuable thing, which is humanity and dignity.

Definitely a movie worth watching.

As with most new to the shelf productions this one is no different and has to contain whatever the current social engineering is.

The funny thing is that they were banging on about all the old band mates not being politically correct enough, and breaching women's rights by stereotyping them, when all along this movie is stereotyping Cornish people so it's a bit rich!

Apart from that it was barely watchable, with a cameo by Chris Evans and cringe-worthy scenes from the Island Records bash and main stage at Glasto.. I wouldn't recommend this film to anybody who cares anything about Cornwall or sea shanties!

A vessel for promoting some lovely Cornish scenery. That's all it is. If you want an intelligent story with unique twists and suspense then it's a good job you will be stuck on the A303 getting to see it. This is a painfully predictable film with a story so lazy it is a little insulting.

There are some likeable characters and some credible acting talent. But this project was created for the sake of it. There was never an intention to create a real film here. Just another transactional activity aimed at earning a few pounds £.

Every scene, whilst pretty, just collided into the next. The story develops at a rapid pace, ignoring the need for logic or feeling. It just wants to go from A to B and doesn't care how little sense it makes or what well trodden cliches it spews out.

This is a Sunday TV movie at best. With the rain pouring down outside and the family isolating from the next plague.

I hope that it helps to promote Cornwall because it really is a lovely place to visit. Even without the massive CGI sunsets.

A watchable but unremarkable sequel which covers a lot of the same ground as the first film and in a similar fashion. The story focuses more on the issues of the "lead" singer than the band and with weaker characters, some poor acting and nowhere near as much charm overall. There's enough humour, sea shanties and idyllic Cornish scenery to enjoy, but it wasn't particularly good or memorable.

This is a good movie - suitable for watching as a family or even when dating. It has light romance, light comedy, feel good results. Of course, the singing is really good. A bit clinche at times but overall pretty entertaining. The acting is good, scenery nice and humor entertainingly. I like the fact that they did not use super model figures as their male and female leads. The cast reflects regular folks and that contributed to the film being believable. Some parts are predictable but overall it's good entertainment and you feel happy having watched the movie. It is well paced too - not a dull moment.
