i watch this film in the theater in edinbourgh along with 3 other american and our friend from manchester and we all think this be a waste of time . we would have much rather spend an extra hour to watch vapid dialog of star war iii that be play down the hall than all of this . open with one of the bad joke i have ever see commit to celluloid on the big screen and it do not take off with a bang . throughout the movie we get the feeling that the joke be just try too hard and the writer think about the setup so much that you could see the joke come 2 minute beforehand and then when it come it be so lackluster that you couldn not even smile while i cite the giraffe cum ming a a prime example . the plot itself make for some interesting thought in my mind and which entertain me much more than what be go on on the screen . i think a lot more could have be do with that angle ( the two different world and the fish out of water experience of the character and the confusion and surprise a people try to comprehend and distinguish the character and writer from each other . ) but too much time be waste with push this painful plot to the end with as much bizarre and goof a be humanly possible . and to say the 16th century character show any extra talent from the writer be an insult to intelligent writer and editor who possibly could have make this film a worthy 40 minute afterthought while but no and it a full length torture film of unfunniness . a we be leave the theater and which have very little laugh inside it and i overhear the young hip electro clash british couple behind me say that be rather good wasn not it . you never really know what be come next . and the girl respond yeah and quite surprising . and that be it . if this be what be mean to get out of british people from watch a comedy represent no laugh for 90 minute but a teeny bit of communication between two lover at the end and then this film succeed . but i have more belief in british life than that . i have not not laugh so hard at a comedy film since american pie ii .
