Anyone going to go and see the new Ab Fab film?

Postby ... » 29 Jun 2016, 12:47

With something like 58 cameos in an hour and a half and Patsy and Edina apparently fleeing to the South of France It looks mind-numbingly, Holiday on The Buses awful - the sort of thing that Jennifer Saunders herself would have skewered mercilessly when at her peak. Anyone agree/disagree?

The reviews that I've been able to find online have actually been surprisingly kind - 3 stars each in the Guardian and the Telegraph. Still not going to watch it though

It looks alright but it's not something I would ever go to the cinema to see.

I'll probably go. There are few enough things I'm interested in seeing, and at least it's old characters I already like.

My wife bought tickets, but there was an opportunity to have my testicles twisted off by a trainee farm-hand, which I didn't want to miss.

I will surely go. Some of the writing in Ab Fab the series was just wonderful. Even better in hindsight.

I saw it over the weekend and liked it a lot. Probably a bit clearer than the series, which for this American was a good thing. The cameos were Altman squared.

Not really a fan (I recently bought a pile of DVDs in a charity shop and got seriously fed up with the two ladies after one season), but that sounds good! :P
