Reviews

United Kingdom released, PAL/Region 2 DVD: LANGUAGES: English ( Dolby Digital 2.0 ), English ( Subtitles ), SPECIAL FEATURES: Interactive Menu, Scene Access, SYNOPSIS: The British comedy team of Tommy Cannon and Bobby Ball star in this funfest as a pair of policemen who man the police station in the small town of Little Botham. Crime is rare in Little Botham, and authorities plan to close the station as an economy measure. Not wanting to lose their jobs, Ball and Cannon fabricate a phony crime wave to make it look as if they're needed after all. But when they attempt to steal a valuable painting from Lloyd (Roy Kinnear), one of the richest men in town, they find that a gang of real art thieves have been at work, and now they have a serious case to crack. Boys in Blue is a remake of Ask a Policeman, a 1938 vehicle for British comedy star Will Hay. ...The Boys in Blue

This review is from: The Boys in Blue [DVD] (DVD)
Loved this film. Its cheap and tacky with basic Cannon & Ball humour and is absolutely wonderful.

Excellent for those wet Sunday afternoons.

1.0 out of 5 stars Buy the original 'Ask a Policeman', 12 Jun 2011
By 
Naj "Naj" (London United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Boys in Blue [DVD] (DVD)
I switched off and put on my DVD of Ask a Policeman.

I'd advise customers to check out that original film (with Will Hay, Moore Marriot etc.) yes you've probably never heard of it or them as it was made back in the 1940's, or ealier. The jokes are so much funnier and the scene where grandad remembers the old rhyme about smugglers is hilarious. The Boys in Blue really should have stuck to the original script it's just as funny today. Give Ask a Policeman a go, you never know you may like their other films too.
