Numerootno A story that's too fascinating to pass by...

Robert Joyner The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

Rosie Searle It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

Jakoba True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.

beeny7 We watched this on DVD today (too hot to go out) and the whole family loved it! It's not often you see a film that really stays with you but we were all talking about it right through dinner and my brother and his friends have already started quoting their favourite lines - a sure fire indicator of a cult hit if ever there was one!Everyone loved Stephen Mangan and Rhys Thomas who are just the most wonderful friends in it (bickering their way across the ice was just hilarious and a bit like a dysfunctional marriage!) but personally my favourites were Rosie Cavaliero (not an actress I'd seen before) and Lars Arentz Hansen. These two were so truthful and funny I just loved watching them every time they came on screen. Real stars in the making (if they're not already - I don't know!!)Also I have to say that the DVD extras just are lovely. The actors are so, so funny and the story of the making of it just so great. Thankyou!

drklabs What to discuss about films like this? absolutely nothing , every impotent untalented people in those days going out getting a camera in their hands and make movies and they also make a lots of promises, we doing this to save the world , to save the politics system to save hungry people , to save the plants , to save dolphins ,monkeys etc , what a shame Don't YOU EVER PEOPLE THINKED WE KNOW ALL OF THIS? Don't YOU EVER THINKED THAT THIS ARE THINGS THAT EVERYONE KNOWS? Don't YOU UNDERSTAND THAT HUMAN RACE Doesn't WANT TO SAVE PLANETS PLANTS NATURE ETC? WE Don't WANT TO SAVE ANYTHING ! WHY? Because we just don't care and this exists in our nature in our DNA ,YES WE ARE SELFISH B ASTARDS THATS WHAT WE ARE, WE CARE ONLY ABOUT HOW WE LL FILL OUR POCKETS WITH MONEY,OUR STOMACH WITH FOOD AND TO F ... Everyone AND EVERYTHING ON THIS PLANET , SO ACCEPT IT ...And if you really care use some art to express this things because in the way you doing this you waisting your time and our time ,because i m saying again we know all this things we just need to look at it in the good looking way and to say AHH! thats a nice point of view.

Simon Funnell David L Williams has directed such a funny and in places touching movie. It does have a message, but it wears it lightly thanks to the excellent script, direction and a superb cast of British and Norwegian comic actors.The film has an excellent soundtrack and a very witty script, but in the end the film's biggest strength is its excellent cast of British comic actors headed by Stephen Mangan and Rhys Thomas who are superb.Very rarely does a whole cinema laugh huge belly laughs but this was the case at the ICA last night. One of the best films I've seen all year - my tummy muscles are still aching from all of the laughing I did last night. Go and see this...

emij This film made me laugh from beginning to end. Beyond the Pole has brilliant cast of the top British actors, add to that the beautiful scenery, and the mockumentary style of story telling and you have all the right ingredients for a fantastic British film. The script is superbly written with heart warming characters over-coming adversity by attempting to be the first Carbon Neutral, Vegetarian, Organic expedition ever to reach the North Pole. Rhys Thomas is hilarious as Brian and the interaction between him and Stephen Mangan (Mark) as they pursue their heroic trip feels natural. I think that this could have all the success of "Full Monty" and "Four Weddings". I would love to go and see this film again and take my friends along for a really great feel good evening.
