5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic, 22 Dec 2005
One of the best films that I have ever seen, watched it becauseof the actors/actresses & they gave one of the best performances in a long time. It is not an obvious great film however the dark comedy & the fantastic links betweeen characters make it easy to watch & thoroughly enjoyable. Would recommend it to fans of comedy or just great films.

5.0 out of 5 stars Truly great film, 17 Jun 2006
By Lazy wolf eyes (The windmills of your bum) - See all my reviews
I can't believe the amount of bad reviews on here for this film. It is not your average, obvious comedy but it has truly inspiring moments. The acting is superb, and the cast is fantastic.

It's a shame that people can't appreciate this film, I suspect most of them prefer watching 'comedy' where men dress up as women and make jokes about toilet humour.

Don't judge the film on these reviews, it really is brilliant, and I would definately recommend it if you are a fan of Stephen Mangan, where he portrays an absolute vile character that makes Guy Secretan look like Mother Teresa.

As for the dvd itself, its choc full of extras, all of which are worth a look.

5.0 out of 5 stars Loved It, 17 Jul 2007
Festival is an excellent film, introducing a range of characters with depth, humour and a degree of darkness. From Joan Gerard (Daniella Nardini) as a jaded reporter, a great turn from Chris O'Dowd and a suitably shallow Stephen Mangan as comedian Sean O'Sullivan, we see all sides of the characters. Worth watching for the award ceremony alone.

The movie covers a lot of ground at a rapid pace and gives a valid representation of the Edinburgh Festival Fringe as it has become: more of a comedy festival for comedians craving celebrity than the wealth of artistic possibilities that it once was. This may be unpalatable for some, but this hard hitting film is both funny and unrelentingly on target. Highly recommended.
