    ThedevilChoose When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.
    Marva-nova Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.
    Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
    1bilbo This series started out really well but sadly sunk to unfunny levels.The only series that has remained funny is Fawlty towers - simply because John Cleese refused to do any more episodes - he knew that it would not be as funny.However, like The Big Bang theory Green Wing has become not-funny after the start of the second series.That said, the first series was terrific and well worth another view.
    efnijboer For me Green Wing is the best comedy series I have ever seen. The first episode introduces you to the characters and already fun to watch. After that every episode is a full hour packed with the best absurd humor you'll ever seen. It is almost as if every scene is a sketch on its own that is also contributing to the storyline. It is really an extremely clever masterpiece. Also, getting to know the characters helps make the scenes and jokes even more fun. It also is fast paced with really great music leading you out and into scenes and having you laughing and out of breath in no time. There is seriously little time between hilarious scene, situations and jokes that rapidly follow each other up for each full episode. Really a must see series. Dutch readers who like "Toren C" will also really enjoy this series.Not convinced? Just look up "Alan Statham makes a coffee" and watch this scene to determine in less than 2 minutes if this is the series for you. Enjoy!
    em_fun Absolutely mad. Great outrageous characters, insane moments. I have never laughed out loud so much. Guy is my favourite - so selfish arrogant and such a babe magnet. Mac the hunk, stabbing Guy in the arm in the middle of an operation. Maybe Sue White the administrator who sometimes wears a squirrel costume, once jerked off a man in a coma to get the sperm to have his baby. The payoff when Dr Dear keeps trying to phone his mum - don't even try and guess it - but you'll ROTFL. Alan and Joanna - her hiding in his cupboard, him drilling a hole in it so that he can shag her up the a**e. If you like Fawlty Towers or Black Books try this. Endless stunningly inventive insanity.
    glilley Each to his own I suppose. i have been watching the first series on DVD and though I find it quite funny at times some of the absurd mugging that goes on at times really makes me cringe. This is so over the top it makes Little Britain look like Oscar Wilde. I'm thinking particularly of Michelle Gomez as Sue White. Perhaps the second series is better. But I doubt it. People who find someone bending over and sticking their face in a chocolate cake absolutely hilarious need only toddle over to the children's DVD section in any record store in order to fin similar. In some ways it tries to follow the cruel vein of humour found in shows like The Office. This would be a much funnier show consistently if the director were to reign in some of the grossly over-the- top shtick. One gets the feeling that the cast find this all oh so hilarious, finally let loose to chew the scenery as much as they wish and that they are enjoying some sort of private joke.
