It never fails to make me laugh my ass off.


"So your daddy dances in front of you, does he?"
"Only when he's rehearsing."


"Gentlemen the lunchbox has landed!"

:rofl:

5. It was OK
Nothing more than a portable story.

Trainspotting was a much better film.

6. Well, sure.
But The Full Monty is so funny. Of course Trainspotting is a betterfilm, and I find there is a big difference (in my head at least) between "movies" and "films." Or maybe I'm crazy?


Although both movies have Robert Carlyle, which is a plus. I love him pretty much everything he does... except for Eragon, that movie was a travesty.

8. There's a sociopolitical subtext, too
The deindustrialization of northern England and the resulting economic distress.

And it IS very funny.

I'm a Robert Carlyle fan, too. I liked him in Priest, where he plays the title character's gay lover, and in the Hamish Macbeth TV series, where he played a policeman in a small town in Scotland. He was also in an episode of Cracker, playing a much darker and more alienated version of the displaced blue collar worker.
