    Sex Lives of the Potato Men

    http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0368259/

    Saw a trailer for this earlier, looks like a hilarious film. Nice to see Mackenzie Crook (Gareth ) in another film too.

    Any other views on this?

    heard a review of it which stated it the guy who saw it wanted to sue the film makers for calling it a comedy. i think its should be straight to video jobby by the sounds of it. few beers, m8;s round.

    just got back from this

    oooh dear.. not much of a story line, not much comedy.. just lots of jokes based on sex/sexual innuendo. was funny at the start but just got a bit tired after a while. might be good for teens but then its an 18...

    not really worth seeing imo.. maybe play a drinking game or 2 to it thou..

    3/10 - go watch school of rock (again) instead.

    Looks like a big load of rubbish from the trailers, so I won't be seeing this.

    Johnny Vegas and Peter Kay are the most overrated comedians IMO

    i've only heard bad reviews of this, but if its anything like the potato guy who comes to my work (yes, i work in a chippy, refrain from laughing...), who is literally a complete and utter 100% retard, it should be hilarious. one for Bit Torrent metinks...ahem..

    if war is the answer, then we are asking the wrong question

    Don't even try to compare the 2. One swears constantly for effect and the other doesn't need to.

    peter kay is imo overrated, he's good but his new dvd is nothing new on the old one from what i hear.

    Want a new comedian? Dylan morran
