“Lovely gentle film with a great soundtrack. The plot may be a little obvious and thereu0026#39;s a few holes in it here and there, but there are some fantastically hilarious bits in it and some of the cinematography is stunning, possibly at the expense of some of Gavin Mitchellu0026#39;s best bits, which have been edited out. Itu0026#39;s just a feel good movie with a happy ending and a great batch of songs. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eMaguire is great at showing the frustration of his own mistakes and learned to play the guitar just for this role. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eFord Kiernan hams it up magnificently and has some of the best scenes, although his Still Game colleague Gavin Mitchell is also clearly enjoying himself in his role as the hotel manager.”
