I so wanted to love this film, after all look who's in it, so many names and a wealth of acting history. And it's about the NHS, a nations greatest achievement bar none, currently being dismantled bit by bit by bit. And yet this film misfires on just about every level.
David Bradley's, Judi Dench's and Jenifer Saunders roles are top notch, but Bally Gill's is superb.
But what got me, was almost quarter way through the entire film hits a bump in the road, changes direction, hits you square on in the face and then somehow, looses it's way again and finds the road it was on. What the heck happened there? For me it ruined the film. It should have either stuck with the one or the other
There was plenty of potential here, and the cast to take it into the realms of awards, but sadly I think it will disappear into the margin bin of your local video shop - if they still existed.
