Very well executed

Surprisingly incoherent and boring

It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

Currently rated just 5.4, I guess that it's more indication that it's not the kind of humour most reviewers like. There is perhaps s conflict between its viewpoint of adults with experience of bringing up a hormonal mid teenage boy, who are by this stage in life probably more into politely showing off their new kitchens to friends and family than guffawing at painful reminders of their gross male adolescence. It is very Harry Enfield who no doubt has a very nice kitchen but retains a memory of his own awkward teenage phase and has no inhibitions against lampooning his younger self. Today's (or 2000's) teenagers in contrast probably find its portrayal of them as...So Unfair! Harry Enfield is very good but Kathy Burke's Perry is inspired: "Sorry Mrs Pa-erson". Our sympathies go out to the film's hero, played by James Fleet as cashier, chauffeur, porter - and father.It's gross fun in the sun and funny.

complete and utter s**t absolute comedy of the lowest form if you have any intelligence left with in yourself avoid at all costs these people don't know how to write comedy Harry Enfield is a very talented comedian but he can utilise has talents much more than this . when i watched this i felt my eyes were being gorged out with acid i laughed so much because it was so dreadfully unfunny even British sexcoms like confessions of a window cleaner was much funny than this insufferable trip Mr Enfield please utilise your talents in better projects because you are much funnier than this please please but if your suffering from amnesia that film would be a good alternative for recalling the downfall of British comedy . Other than that Harry Enfield is exemplary shame the writing and mediocre script couldn't be on the same level

If you like the Kevin and Perry characters from Harry Enfield and Chums sketch show then you will like this film. The show is full of new and funny material, Enfield and Burkes performances as Kevin and Perry are great, I always found it funny how Burke as a woman played a horny male teen haha, and actually all of the actors did a pretty good job, especially considering that it's more of a tongue in cheek extension of a sketch show than a serious acting film. The soundtrack is excellent and really captures the trance music scene of the time. The kind of people giving this film low reviews I think are people who don't understand the film, haven't ever seen the Harry Enfield and Chums sketch show, and are probably born in a different generation so missed out on that as well as the trance music scene and things, probably thinking the film is supposed to be serious and wondering things like "why is a woman cast as a boy!" and "this acting is all exaggerated and unrealistic, teenagers aren't really like that" lol.

Who on earth told Harry Enfield that he was funny and should become a comedian? He is second only to Michael Mcintyre as the most annoying comedian on TV. He has made an admittedly successful career out of surrounding himself with real talent and playing off that. Paul Whitehouse and Kathy Burke are extremely good comic actors who can make anything they do funny - Enfield cannot. He over acts for comic effect and it just does not fly. This film is an abomination and just embarrasses the British film industry . Of course if you are really wedded to knob gags then Kevin and Perry Go Large will appear like Hamlet to you but somehow I do not think so. Any actor involved in this puerile rubbish must squirm when they are reminded of it. It seems that actors will do anything just to work. The Kevin and Perry thing actually did work on TV mainly thanks to Kathy Burke and the shortness of the sketches but as a film it is beyond awful. I just cannot believe that this thing got finance to be made.
