Movie Reviews of Love, Honour And Obey
Movie Review: Surpasses Lock, Stock... and Sopranos
Summary: 5 Stars
This is one funny movie.The characters are likeable in a nice gritty way.Comparisons? Try Abbbot & Costello-a "Carry-On..." movie and then toss in the 'Long Good Friday" (Yes, I know, it's supposed to joggle your memory, but it's a pretty accurate mix! No?) The gunman who has a problem "shooting... ha ha ha. and toss in the "Raise Bayonetts!" command in the shootout scene .... hilarious. In 98 mins. this movie does what has taken the Sopranos to do in what, two seasons. And this is funnier. Comparison to Lock-Stock... doesn't do this movie justification. And I LIKE Lock-Stock, but this is just plain abso-fan-@#$#$ing-lutely better!Y'knowhatimean?
And Snatch, Lock-Stock's follow up by way of Fight Club, doesn't come close... no likeable characters there at all.
Back to this movie (LH&O) though, its Karaoke scenes are funny, Fireball XL-5, in particular, especially if you've ever seen it or other supermariovision programs.
nice!
Movie Review: Up There With "Lock, Stock" and "Get Carter".
Summary: 5 Stars
This Film is a Rare Treat, I don't think I've ever seen anything like it. You can just tell the cast are having as much fun as the audience. Being that nearly all the dialogue is Adlibbed, and the Cast have all worked together before, the Outcome is a really well put-together - Classic Cockney Crime Caper. The "Fix Bayonett's" Scene is a classic example of the fun nature of the film, and one of the funniest scenes I've seen in a long time. The Cast are the Best Britain has to Offer. Jude Law, Jonny Lee Miller, Ray Winstone, it doesn't Get Much Better. If I was Brad Pitt, I'd have jumped aboard this Brilliant feature instead of the Guy Ritchie's "Snatch" which is bot up to Scratch when compared to "Love, Honour and Obey".Movie Review: Loved it, Never tired of it!
Summary: 5 Stars
Bottom line, if you're just a Jude Law fan as many have mentioned, you will not enjoy this movie. This movie is for lovers of British cinema, whether it be blockbuster or independent. I'm a big fan of Britain and I was lucky enough to understand not only the jokes, but the history behind them that lend itself to the hilarity of it all. Rhys Ifans as the thugged out Welshman (not true for all Welsh) in the scene with the firebomb screaming his insults, only the British and their legions can truly know how funny that is. The entire North vs. South London theme was pretty funny, too. It goes to show that the British have a great sense humor regarding their bulldog spirit. A+ film. Not one for this side of the pond.Movie Review: this is a top UK gangster movie
Summary: 5 Stars
I've seen this film ten times and I will watch it again and again. This movie is pure brilliance, the very original concept of gangsters putting the Karaoke before business, the humour, and yes the violence all come together to make this film, for me, stand out from all the same old same old being rolled off the Hollywood production line. It is British at its best and wackiest, like all the main actors using their own first names. However, what I will say is that I don't think it would be appreciated across the pond because I just don't think they will 'get it'. To sum up IT'S MONTY PYPHON MEETS THE GODFATHER DOWN THE GREEN MAN FOR A GOOD OLD SING-SONG.Movie Review: One of my top five funniest films
Summary: 5 Stars
This film is fantastic and no doubt will gain cult status! Think "Operation Good Guys" the BBC mock cop documentary meets Guy Ritchie's "Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels". It really is a laugh a scene with British humour at its best. The entire cast are fabulous and look like they thoroughly enjoyed making the film. I have watched it three times now and will probably watch it again by the end of the week, I can't get enough!
