The story takes place in the 1920s but it involves a black man w a white wife & an Indian woman working in the police office. Neither existed in the England of 1920. This makes the movie hard to take seriously, even though it is a comedy filled w filthy language.

Interesting movie! Loved all the creative shots…the main character Ollie, is someone you’d never want to meet. Felix is adorable but his his functional family is bizarre. What a strange film…it’ll leave you scratching your head. It shows there’s no justice in the world.

There were some early moments when I laughed out loud. Found it strange that there was a mural of Teddy Roosevelt on the side of a building…and it was in 3 different scenes, but never a connection. When Eddie met Pepper & she said derogatory comments about Jesus & the meaning of Christmas, I began questioning what I was watching. The brother goes into a recording studio during his sister’s track meet & starts doing weird things. Strange, poorly written movie & nothing that Murphy will look back on with pride.

I have laughed as much as I have in any movie. Some great one liners. I thought it was fun & most jokes went over the kid’s heads…but they laughed anyway.
