Such a frustrating disappointment
Simply Perfect
A different way of telling a story
It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties. It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.
This a bloody series for gawd's sake, so many judging it as a movie...How do these idiots even get around to finding this, never mind watching it. It appeals to a select audience only, and.When i say select i mean British! I have chuckled at and appreciated the banter and gentle ribbing between Coogan and Brydon throughout, and you really need to have that unique British sense of humour to even start enjoying it.... I loved it!
If you need action and major special effects to enjoy a film, this will be your cup of tea. But I was excited to see another Coogan-Brydon venture come out and couldn't wait to watch it on Netflix. Like the Crosby-Hope road movies of old, "The Trip to Spain" repeats basically the same formula as its predecessors. Here, there are new impersonations added to the repertoire displayed in the past (David Bowie, John Hurt, Roger Moore), and a cliffhanger ending. It's not for everyone, but fans of Coogan and Brydon, especially those of us in the US who don't get to see most of their TV work, will enjoy it. One bonus for me was learning that Kyle Soller of the new Poldark is an American.
The movie is about 2 random guys just eating and talking to each other 100% of the time, they try to be funny but fail miserably in doing it. There is one scene where they sit at a table with 2 women they somehow know a bit, guys just talk to each other about something again and make funny faces but women don't get it and just sit there looking bored - that basically sums it up what goes on in the whole movie. After about 30-40 minutes of watching it I gave up, luckily it was for free so no money wasted.
i live in spain. if i ever see that range rover heading in my direction i'll try to be out. who watches the full length of this crap?. they cant even be funny reading from a supplied script. how many times do the y do the same me English you jane scene before they realise ITS NOT FUNNY. truly madly deeply......awful. worse than awful, its boring
