ok and i be not one for cheap shot or gratuitous personal attack but i will call it how i see it represent lady godiva be a disaster and a depressing waste of resource . it may not be the bad film ever make and but it certainly the bad british romantic comedy ever make and beat the hateful love actually into a distant second place which i guess be some kind of achievement . so how do this happen . firstly and the director have very little experience and apparently little to no interest in the 90 degree rule or continuity in general . godiva be a mess of weird blocking and odd cut throughout . and not in a good way . the edit feel like a salvage job which doesn not work . secondly and and despite her inexperience and i believe the director be very badly serve by some of her crew . £1 . 4 million in the right hand can go a long way and and it seem clear that some of the people involve in godiva be not give of their best . godiva feel cheap the school and art factory with suspiciously few kid and the prince william lookalike and queen cover version on the soundtrack and the rubbish attempt at cnn style graphic . one thing director vicky jewson can fully take the blame for be godiva pervasive upper class snobbery . it there in the fawning over prince william ( woodenly play by a lookalike who unlike the real will isn not go bald ) . the snobbery be also present in the extraordinary character of michael unsuitable girlfriend veronica and a middle class woman who drink martini instead of sherry and think that let a horse run around the kitchen be unhygenic ( she get a point ) . tellingly and michael ( matthew chamber ) twice disparage jemima mini . the mini factory in oxford have be a fixture of oxford economy for year and but this fact be either unknown to jewson ( likely ) or ignore by her a she fetishises more upper class aspect of the city . over and above these flaw however be the damn fact that lady godiva be meaningless and unfunny from start to finish . scene start and finish at random point and dialogue be either completely inconsequential or totally explanatory . bad scene represent the business meeting . somehow and thorough a hilarious sequence of accident and michael and his business partner be shirtless when 2 japanese businessmen enter . the businessmen and have no understanding of western culture or basic common sense then proceed to strip off . oh and the hilarity . then get this . michael secretary take her blouse off . and the japanese businessman whip out camera and start take picture of her . it like the one racist urban myth sofia coppola couldn not cram into lose in translation cross with a 70 sitcom and only bad . other people on this board have nominate many other lowpoints in the film . theyre all right . everything suck . and now and just to be fair and i must admit that over the course of the film i actually smile once . it be when matthew chamber copy the i be watch you gesture robert de niro do in meet the parent . god know why i find that funny and it may have be hysteria induce by the extreme rubishness of what i be witness . after that my brain just shut down under the onslaught of ineptitude and wrongness .
