Lovesusti The Worst Film Ever
Curapedi I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.
Anoushka Slater While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.
Candida It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.
andrew-bremner747 What a refreshing series with just the right amount of humour , from hating to loving The original cast in the first few seasons rocked this series then a new cast take over and everything turns south - new cast has a mother that is overly angry all the time and the rest of the cast just don't capture the essence of Benidorm like the original cast do for the first few seasons - would love to see them back for sure I'm getting bored with the new cast The young chaps are cool from the new cast
Andrew Beard I am extremely disappointed with the new series of Benidorm. I have enjoyed watching earlier series as the characters were engaging and funny. As the series progressed the comedy got better and the characters story's became very watchable. This trend has completely disappeared with series 8-10. Some of the characters are still enjoyable and funny to watch especially the ever funny Mateo and the lovable Liam. For starters Lesley has got nothing left to give and I feel extremely sorry for Tim Healey who has played the part so well up until now, it seems to me that writers just have nothing new left to give him. Kenneth has just become a laughable joke it is the same thing over and over again. The main family the Dawson's just aren't funny and never have been since they were put in to replace the oh so funny Garveys (they should never have left) the Dad and grandad have just become letchs over their sons girlfriend who was underused. The constant letch fest over the first half of the series is ridiculous, I especially couldn't stand the awful Loretta who is just so unfunny I turn away every time she's on screen as the rubbish that comes out of her mouth is unbearable. The rubbish that she utters is mind numbing and the characterisation is awful. The absolutely ridiculous Pauline is back yet again pissed every time she's on screen which just makes her unwatchable, she has nothing new to give. Monty and Temple Savages relationship is just utter boredom, same jokes every week and nothing new to give. Boring dialogue, unfunny jokes, overused sexual innuendos and over acting and under acting of the worst kind have absolutely ruined what was a very good series for 7 years. Well done to the Benidorm writers for absolute killing the series dead. I will not be tuning in again !!
ianlouisiana "Benidorm" is a wonderful,true,touching and hilarious portrait of the British abroad.These folk are not "Europeans",they are Brits,proud,bloody - minded,funny,sharp and generous with everything but money. Noticeably short of jolly cockneys,the programme concentrates on folk from that mythical area north of Watford where few of us southerners dare tread,Lancashire. Determined to have a good time they have plumped for an "all - in" package holiday at a Benidorm hotel that seems stuck in a 1980s parallel universe. All human life is there.With its glorious vulgarity,its desperation, its misunderstandings,deceits,hopeless hopes and large and small tragedies. The writing is spot on,the cast incomparable,the characters as real as your friends from the pub or factory. If I pick the Garvey family for special mention it is because they are closer to being a real family than any other I've seen in even the most prestigious productions. Also outstanding is the brilliant Mr J.Vegas and the sublime Miss A.Cruttenden. Forget any patronising criticism you may have read,"Benidorm" tells you more about Britain and the British in the 21st century than a dozen TV documentaries or the entire ouevre of the fashionable Mr Loach and his companions in condescention and it's gloriously rudely funny to boot.
Greg75 I was really waiting for the DVD to come out, as a big fan of Derren Litten, brilliant actor seen on "The Catherine Tate Show" and who wrote the entire "Benidorm" series (without even getting himself a small part in it !). Well, what a disappointment ! Instead of the sarcastic and subtle humor (though the premises were ideal in that matter) that I was expecting, all I saw was poor & terribly vulgar situations (beyond words AND laughs), ill-directed actors, almost total absence of wit and intelligence. The only nice thing was to see Chrissy Rock again (from Ken Loach's "Ladybird") as the karaoke presenter. Apart from that, nothing. Total vacuum.
