“It lacked oomph. We need so much now when the movies are of such high quality.nThe acting was not the issue rather the script they had to work with. There were only a couple of belly laughs, and others that were funny but not hilarious.nThe setting was fine as well. Some nice views were on show.nWith comedies they have the opportunity to be ridiculous and far fetched with some superb lines thrown in for effect and to give good actors a chance to shine. A few twists and turns that you cannot see coming also helps. The actors were let down I think.nThe storyline needed to be more complex. The very best comedies are multi layered and clever. This one lacked all that unfortunately.nThere was little tugging of the heart strings as well. That can be omitted for a comedy but it helps as well.nIn depth characterisation was not there either. I did not connect much to any of them.nThere were a few surprises but I had guessed them or saw them coming.nMaybe keep it for a TV movie later on. It is not in the realm of the fine comedies!”
