big budget(ish) and minor stars. felt sorry for bob newheart acting in this drivel must need the money to retire to Florida!. the funny bit's wern't funny. the plot couldn't have been believed even if it were written by god himself on stone tablet. the acting was diabolical especially from kyle mcclachlan, who can actually act he must need the money for his own production or something. noah wyle stank. the hot eye candy was a dog and pathetic at acting. the script and dialogue was awful as were the set pieces.. a total waste of 1 hour 45 minutes.. want the same experience but feel less cheated i suggest you put your head in a gas oven for that length of time but make sure the gas is off first.
Christian slater comedy?? aye OK! i'll rent it on DVD and i'm glad i paid 3 quid instead of 6 for watching it in the flicks. This is a steaming pile of utter dung. I watched the first half hour of this film and hated every minute of it. It was excruciating to see Christian Slater act in this dung. The script was dung the acting was excrement.
I didn't know it was a British comedy before i rented it, i now wish i knew beforehand. Peter Richardson writer/director/whatever formerly of the "comic strip presents" knows nothing about comedy. British comedy hasn't been worthwhile since the Boulting brothers and Ealing studios quite easily threw out genuine classics!. In short this film had no direction script stars or anything worthwhile to recommend it. The film should be re-titled "lets get every Z list name from British TV and mug at the camera"...I wouldn't give peter Richardson 10 quid to direct a claims4u advert. Christian Slater you should hang your head in shame!

In case you have been in a coma for the last few years and haven't heard of Tenacious D. They are a running joke as the greatest rock band in the world. The joke being they play acoustic rock solely on 2 acoustic guitars. But they really are one of the greatest rock bands in the world. Jack Black has the greatest rock voice since Ian Gillan off Deep Purple fame (check out the original CD of Jesus Christ Superstar, you'll see what i mean).
As for Kyle Gass, he truly is an incredibly talented guitar player as is JB. But KG is up there with paco pina and Julian Bream in my opinion. The short lived HBO Tenacious D episodes now available on The complete masterworks of Tenacious D are a cross between the monkees and Ren and Stimpy. Sheer genius. And on the DVD you get a lot of bang for your bucks.. The episodes. live concert. road footage. skits. and music vids and TV appearances. Ask Santa to bring you it this Xmas, you will not be disappointed!
