“From the ashes of Ealing rises a film worthy of the studio name.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eA fun packed, good natured, girl-powered romp complete with obligatory wacky robbery plot so beloved of the studiosu0026#39; classics. Though the plotting wavers the abundant energy carries it through with hardly a glitch. Rupert Everett is a revelation and Colin Firth wisely plays it straight even whilst sending himself up. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eA very UK film with lots of in-jokes for us 30 somethings (loved the u0026#39;Another Countryu0026#39; line), funny lines and nicely sketched stereotypes for younger girls to admire and younger boys to fancy.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eGreat for a family trip or as a personal time-passer, it sold out continuously in Glasgow for weeks, although a sequel really isnu0026#39;t warranted.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eEnjoy it as the stand alone little gem it is, harking back to the days when films were self-contained little classics rather than potential sequel spinners.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eMy comedy of 2007!u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eP.S.- Remember to stay for the u0026#39;Girls Aloudu0026#39; title song credits!”
