Please tell me-is the sinking of the boat what actually happenned? If so-what caused it? The Weather or the Government?I enjoyed the film-FABULOUS music. Some hilarious moments.I am a “Child of the 60′s -wonder journey to my youth !1 This is a genuine question.

Richard.
I’m 68 years young, and I loved every bloody minute of it, and so did the rest of us who saw it. It was refreshing to see something on the screen that was full on humour. We all came away feeling good.I don’t tell anyone that they must see it. I just say please your self, We did. It’s up to you. What a great piece of work.

@dom: I have seen it SIX times now. Do you think I need help?

And to all others – there is something about this movie that makes you feel good. And it’s not only me, I have heard the audience roar with laughter a lot – every single time I saw it.

I absolutely love the biscuit and tea scene by the way. And Thick Kevin is too quirky for words, I love him.

This film is atrocious. Read the views of those who have paid to see it, rather than those who are paid to praise it.

No amount of spin from bloggers, pr people & friends of Richard Curtis (Jonathan Ross for example) will convince any cinema goer with half a brain otherwise.

And I’m quite sick of hearing “it’s not a critics film”, as if the general public were brain dead ciphers for any old tripe that gets served up.

You’ve watched it THREE times? You must be mentally ill.

Absolutely Terrible.

This film is an excellent example of “the emperor’s new clothes” phenomenon.

So what if the cast is good? The script and editing are appalling.

It’s a much better film than the Quantum of Solace.

It’s not a critics film, it’s a fun night out. My wife and I both enjoyed the film.

If you want to know more about the boat (and station) the film is based on start at the website linked below.
