Dialahit Usually I like Steve Coogan's work but this time round I am left disappointed with a slight feeling of being conned that I assumed I was watching a comedy. It did have some mildly titillating moments based around several character impersonations but these were generally overcooked (and over repeated) to the point that it presented itself as 'desperate for idea's'. I am of the understanding that most of this movie was ad-libbed with a loose plot of the road trip and food review(for a magazine) but to be honest, it showed. At times it was a painful experience but mostly just plain old boring with the occasional moment of mild humor. You would have to be a hardcore Coogan or Brydon fan to love this film, if not then stay well clear. I never got to the end, just could not see the point. To sum this movie up in one word - bland.

annmarin-77132 I am so in love with this film. It is along the lines of a "My Dinner with Andre", so watchable, so funny, so warm, I just love it.I really like road trip films, and these two buddies are so fun to watch. The first time I saw it , I was so sad to see it end.Steve Coogan plays (himself?) a successful actor and his sidekick is his second-choice companion on an English road trip full of meals, flirting, historic landmarks, and quirky small village accommodations.Hilarity ensues with much singing of Abba songs, impersonations of Sir Anthony Hopkins, and more.Give it a go... I think you'll like it!

zentro I realize I am supposed to be in awe of the protagonists' witty impressions. The problem is I just didn't find them funny or even that good. And I kept expecting there to be some kind of relevant plot or point but there was none to be found. I am normally a fan of all things British but this film left me feeling like had wasted time.The only redeeming value for this film was the beautiful countryside. The cinematography was quite nice. One did get the "feel" of rural England. Foodies will perhaps vicariously enjoy the indulgent dishes served. Watch if you want to see two guys who are both annoying go at each other. Watch if a plot or a point is not important to you.

SeattleSpearo-206-438171 There's a lot of dialog. It's done in a realistic way. There's also beautiful scenery of the English countryside. If you enjoy Brit comedies and shows, you should enjoy this also. It reminds me of the Brit series "Downton Abbey", which they reference in the movie, the place, not the series. It's not a comedy, but some parts are amusing.It is slow moving, so that's why I say to sit back & relax. I can't say that I would have appreciated it as much had I viewed it in a theater, instead of the comfort of my home. You could term the movie as a slice of life, because of the way the dialog was written. It's not fancy in it's presentation.
