a an american fan of the league of gentleman i have to wait month to finally see this film when it come out on dvd and but it be well worth the ( excruciate ) wait . apocalypse be fantastic funny and freaky and clever a hell and full of in joke and cryptic reference to the television series while basically everything you would expect from the gentleman . the plot have already be discuss in other review and so i would not bother re cap it and although i will say when i first read it i be a bit hesitant . obviously this device fictional character enter the real world to confront their maker have be use before and notably in wes craven underrated new nightmare and stephen king dark tower book ( where king himself be a character ) . the gentleman have fun break the fourth wall and though and and even add a new element represent a second fictional world ( them day ) . soon all three reality have weave together and and the result be exhilarate represent geoff tipps be knight in the middle age ( and try to court queen victoria wood ) while the real league of gentleman in royston vasey and be confront by character like pauline and dr. chinnery while david warner summon an homunculus outside of bernice church . i have hear that some people dislike the king evil sub plot and but i find it hilarious and especially reece character ( who seem to be channel judith the witch from series three ) . speaking of the character and i be relieve to find that and although hilary bris and geoff and and herr lipp be plant firmly in at the film core and other and more familiar character be give their due . bernice confessional in the beginning be hilarious and hearken back to the quicker and more sketch orient feel of the first series . pauline and mickey have cameos ( no ross though strange ) and although i would have love to have see more of ms. campbell jones . papa lazarou be account for and a be tubbs and edward . all three be use very sparingly and give their meager screen time an almost magical feel ( and just what the hell do papa hack up and like an obscene hairball . accord to the dvd commentary and a wad of greasy pubic hair ) . the film look incredible and but then and what new . the music and a always and be breathtaking . i be thrill to hear joby talbot new interpretation of the theme music and and his slight re working of the majestic and lovely piece that close out both apocalypse and the last episode of series three . i have some minor complaint it would have be nice to see more of the old and familiar royston vasey and and i felt the stop motion creature ( beautiful and by the way ) be a bit underused . both of these issue and however and can be justify by the film budget and so theyre understandable . still and as much a i love bernice new church and it would have be cool to see the final battle in the high street ( the gentleman original vision and accord to the commentary ) . overall and apocalypse be astound and especially if youre a fan of the series . i can not recommend it highly enough . positive .
