Phil Carmody (FatPhil) I have a nasty feeling that most of the people who've given this 1 did actually laugh at at least one thing, but then noticed that they'd done so, and felt shame at laughing at something so low-brow.Now consider the priest who wishes to stamp out the evils of homosexuality, the politician who wishes to keep it, or make it, illegal. You know the ones, the ones found with rent-boys a few years later. They notice something inside themselves that they felt shame about, and they wish to crush it. (Book of Mormon reference - see it.)Stop over-compensating. Just be honest to yourselves. It was trashy low-brow, camply over-acted in places, toilet-to-gutter-level, immature comic-book humour. Yes, and it was kinda funny. They captured the absurd irreverence of the Viz cartoon rather well.If you watched this not expecting potty humour - *you* are stupid, not the film.Likewise, if you gave it 10, consider those who remark that everything even vaguely camp is fabulous! No it's not. Stop over-compensating. Be honest to yourselves. It was trashy low-brow, camply over-acted in places, toilet-to-gutter-level, immature comic-book humour. Yes, and it was kinda funny.OK, I know I've just insulted 80% of the people who've voted on this film (that is the case, I don't deny it), and apparently also insulted everyone else from priests to homosexuals (which is not the case - I just needed a metaphor), but I've long thought that when averages on IMDb are evaluated, all 1s and 10s should be silently ignored. The U-shaped "bell curve" of this film reinforces that opinion.I was expecting a 3, maybe 4 if it was Viz-like enough, which it was (sorry Viz, I'm still a fan of the original). But I laughed more than expected, hence the score. The stupidity of it worked for me. I was entertained. As was my girlfriend (though perhaps not quite as much, but we are from slightly different cultural backgrounds).Loved the supporting roles - all of them hit the nail square on. Dolph - there's no shame, no need to drown your agent - you were grand. Punt and Dennis - classic. Les Dennis - even you should get a pat on the back!

diadectes58 If you are expecting to see a film featuring the Viz comic strip characters Sandra Burke and Tracey Tunstall you will be disappointed. The characters in the movie are different. They have different personalities and are portrayed in a more favourable and sympathetic light. In the comic strip the girls are disgustingly loutish rude and bullying. In the movie they are more sensitive and likable. The film itself is pretty dreadful although not totally unwatchable and you can fast forward through the worst bits. The story, script, acting - everything really - are all bad. It has a few - very few - good moments. I give it two stars as there are worse films out there. Conclusion: there was only ever going to be one reason to watch this film and that was to see the Fat Slags, but, as they are not in the movie, there really is no reason to watch this film.

c-haidt I watched this movie with my brother recently, both of us having grown up with the Viz magazine....and you know what? We sort of liked it.Fine - the plot is standard and the jokes are usually crude and predictable, but there are moments where the other characters just shine. Anthony Head delivers a very strong performance as the evil assistant, Geri Halliwell was surprisingly *good* in her scenes, and seeing Dolph Lundgren as the personal trainer was good too.Don't get me wrong - the movie is still bad, but it's the bad that you can enjoy since it's SO bad it's funny. Light entertainment, watch it with friends for a couple of laughs and a session of ripping on the movie while it runs.Watch it. Go on, I dare you!

AKeeb I thought that I would watch this film as it was on TV, I like Viz and had an hour or two to kill.I had also heard that the film was a bit of a train wreck and sometime films like that can be quite amusing in places.I was wrong.This is unwatchable.One of the actresses was giggling and grinning all the way through no matter what her character was supposed to be doing. I think she was embarrassed and so she should be.The other tried to fake an awful northern accent for an hour whilst starring like a mad woman. Whoever wrote this has never read the comic strip and should be shot.Drivel.
