Easy to watch, simple British film with a lot of heart and weed. If you like Doc Martin, then you'll probably enjoy this. That was my main interest in watching this, as I loved the first two Doc Martin films prior to the series - and this features Dr Martin Bamford (instead of Ellingham) too.
This really picked up steam towards the end and I found myself having quite a few laughs. You don't have to use your brain, so it's the perfect choice to unwind with after a busy day or Sunday afternoon. Craig Ferguson and Brenda Blethyn had great chemistry which kept me engaged.
Keep an eye out for a hilarious pre-Black Books Bill Bailey too, who was perfectly cast in this. The Cornwall setting is of course a character all of its own too, and helps you fall in love with the small fictional town and people.
Saving Grace wasn't groundbreaking, nor even in the best films I've seen lately. But it was relaxing, simple and easy, which was exactly what I needed right now.
