screenman According to the blurb on the back of the DVD case; Jonothan Ross 'laughed until a little bit of wee came out'. I suspect that that has more to do with his being full of it.I never watched the series for one reason or another, so maybe I'm missing some essential cues. As to this movie; I watched the first 45 minutes or so. I laughed once, smiled once, then reached for the newspaper whilst waiting for something else entertaining to happen. Nothing did.Evidently intended to be a surreal spoof upon life in the post-Python, gross-humour style, this one falls absolutely flat. There's been a host of comedy series on television in the last few years, not the least of which were 'Bottom', 'The Fast Show' 'The Vicar Of Dibley' and 'Father Ted', each one engaging a group of bizarre but hilarious characters and sketches. Any one of these could knock this crap into a cocked hat.If the series was anything like this movie; I'm surprised they got the funding. Happily it was one of those £2 Tesco bran-tub purchases and is now in the local charity shop.The moral of the story is; don't believe the pundits, never pay top dollar.

johnnyboyz The popular television series 'The League of Gentlemen' is given a bit of a face lift, here, as it launches onto the big screen. Unfortunately it's a very, very bumpy landing.Nothing seems right in this film right from the beginning. The character introductions are made obvious as each one is separately introduced in a way the writers feel are unique but people familiar with the show will already recognise them whilst, I thought, there wasn't enough there for the people who DON'T know them. The beginning was unfunny, not scary and was rather immature. In fact, the entire opening half an hour was just gross and extremely bland.I feel the writers went in completely the wrong direction with the whole concept for this film, because it doesn't work. The fact the characters are coming out of their world and into ours is a silly idea and it just feels like a poor man's 'Last Action Hero'. A few things I like about the TV series is the fact it's rather random, the character's stories entwine and the humour was rather dark. In the film, the humour is though it's aimed at 13 year olds, the story is terrible and it's just not funny. I would've expected better.A lot of the scenes are random and unfunny with ridiculous occurrences happening such as one character (literally, a character) writing himself into another programme the writers have written and the film taking an alternate route into 18th century England or whenever it was. Are we watching this as a film? Or are we just witnessing the creator's attempt at trying to market a new idea.I really couldn't get into this film. It's repetitive, dull, nothing much funny actually happens and my favourite characters from the TV series were hardly in the film at all. What the makers should have done is taken a leaf out of the 'South Park' creators' ideas. Make one long episode and set it in the town with a load of entwining stories, whilst at the same time creating some new boundaries of humour like South Park did when they made America and Canada go to war with one another.This was very disappointing and I would not recommend it, especially not to the fans of the TV series.

p-robson2 league of gentleman has been the most disturbing British sitcom to be on t.v and how can a funny movie be so bad rated,they just have no taste this film will make you want to watch over and over again and still find it funny.it is surprising that it has done bad but it is British the cinema do crap most of the time but this time it (in my words) a boost with comedy with a giraffe spunks over Lady's, this is a top British comedy and better than dodge-ball, so by this and it won't prove you wrong as i don't really laugh through films but this film was amazing through comedy with the best characters but i was a bit disappointed of how much Edward and Tabb's were in there for back to typing buy this film and it won't disappoint you.

mini_guv Now I myself had previously seen a few episodes of the Leauge Of Gentleman which I found hilarious. When I brought the film I was not sure if I knew enough about the series to get it, boy was I wrong. This is one of the best comedy films I have seen ever and the clever acting of the Leauge makes the film. It has a very good and funny plot as well as using only a few characters at any one time helps because it doesn't make it too confusing which would have wrecked the film. Even If you have never seen The Leauge Of Gentleman get this film it will make you laugh and this is a film that can be watched more then once and is an excellent film to watch with your mates. It truly deserves it review a definite 10 out of 10.
