Dirty Movie, 1984 – ★★★

An offering from Rik Mayall and Adr Edmondson. Involving a Pervy cinema owner trying to screen a movie at the ONE time of day when he knows noone will turn up…only someone turns up.

Surreally funny in a ‘Vic and Bobs: The Weekenders’ kind of way. It’s one you really have to be in the right mindset to enjoy and today I just wasn’t really fully feeling it.

There were a few good laughs in this one, it’s very silly and overly simplistic. But the downtrodden ‘June’ as played by Jennifer Saunders just ends up coming across as a bit TOO cruel for a zippy goofy comedy.

This was fine…but it wasn’t one of the Best.
