Fisherman's Friends: One and All

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.

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.

Really liked the first film but this is even better. Funnier and more dramatic. Just the kind of feel-good movie we need in these dark times. Loved Imelda May and James Purefoy delivers a powerful and moving performance as Jim who is struggling with grief. Supporting cast are very funny and visually it looks amazing, definitely booking a holiday in Cornwall. Came out of the cinema with a big smile on my face feeling happier about the world.

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.

I think this film knows it's audience and caters to them well. It is almost like comfort food in a movie.

It's just a bit of a shame the script wasn't a bit better. Everything is just so predictable throughout the film and there seem to be plenty of storylines that don't really go anywhere.
