Fizz Disco

Its clear there was a missed opportunity to turn out a believable version of the book. In this weak and thoroughly awkward film, it's as if the whole thing was filmed in one take with no rehearsal beforehand. Every laugh is missed, every line is delivered with the wrong internation and the entire film is flat. It's hard to believe Amblin with Chris Columbus are behind this. Any cozy murder mystery on tv is better than this. With a top cast, there's no doubt there was much more expected of this than delivered

A film to watch when you want cheering up or you fancy a comedy with a great story and laughs throughout! Jonny Depp plays it for laughs and shows his skill with comedy whilst paying homage to the great Terry Thomas. Paul Bettany, Gwyneth Paltrow and the rest of the cast make it a great film that never takes itself seriously ... Loved it from start to finish. Can't believe it's not talked of as a modern classic
