This is a bit hit and miss depending on the episodes and the films that are spoofed in them, but generally this is amusing if not always laugh-out-loud funny. The spoof of Dirty Dancing was very good, and the spoofing of Jurassic Park and Terminator 2 were often funny as well. I wasn't terribly taken with the Pretty Woman episode or the Gremlins one. Leigh Francis (as Keith Lemon obviously) and Paddy McGuinness appeared to be having great fun doing this. It was billed as a "comedic tribute" to some of Francis and McGuinness' favourite films.
Interesting premise overall for this show and it's not a bad execution.

Keith Lemon and Paddy McGuinness attempt to 'faithfully' recreate great movies (but with a tight budget). The films star themselves and a host of mainly British TV celebrities.
Films include Ghostbusters, Gremlins, Dirty Dancing, Top Gun, Terminator 2, Grease, Jaws, Rocky, Pretty Woman, Jurassic Park.
This show is absolutely brilliant. The plots are inventive and some scenes are hilarious. Both Keith and Paddy are brilliant with great chemistry and I love the cameos. Their comic impersonations are spot on. The way they adapt these films is so funny.
I am not exaggerating to say this is one of the best comedy shows on British TV. It's so underrated. I hope they make more.

I think this show has a great premise, and is exactly the sort of thing we need on TV right now, so I was wishing it well from the start.
I was pleased with what I saw. Yes, the two stars are not to everyone's tastes, but I liked the fact that the retelling of the first film (Dirty Dancing) was true enough and also had it's tongue firmly in cheek.
It's been given a dream slot in the schedules, but time will tell whether the public buy into it as a show.
Here's hoping.

Lee Francis is a funny guy. What is he doing wasting his talent with the hopelessly inane Paddy McGuinness? He is awful, cardboard, unfunny and should never be allowed on TV ....Or radio.
Low IQ British humour at it worst.
Unfunny & cringe worthy No wonder i have No idea who Keith or Paddy is.. smh.
