ever notice how so many really bad film attract so many positive vote . not much of a riddle how that happen and but this be not much of a film . there be two way of look at it be give away in the mail on sunday . 1. it free and so you can not complain about it to much . 2. it free and so it can not be much good . my vote be number 2. the free dvd in the sunday paper thing be a recent trend and some great old movie have be give away . theyre one that have be out for age and have make most of the money they will ever make and so it a case of anything else be a bonus . it the last stop for old film and not the first for new one and so you can guess how bad this must be to skip tv and dvd rental . the plus point be that vinnie jones do try hard and derek jacobi be good a dickens . the minus point be a longer list . try isn not the same a succeed for poor vinnie and jacobi other tramp character be talkative ham that go off . the story be very weak . the dickens story do not have anything to do with the film murder and feel like another movie slap onto the script to make people think it a british dan brown without the religion . the support cast be either there for the money ( vanessa redgrave must be really hard up ) or because they be friend or girlfriend of the filmmaker . it be also very and very long for what it be . vinnie take his priceless dickens story with him in his jacket pocket everywhere be good for a couple of laugh and but that it . not funny and very not good even for free .
