Simply Brilliant
6 August 2013
I have been a fan of Russel Brand for years, as a person and as an actor. I have loved every single film I've seen him in because they are great comical feel good films and this is no exception.

Having not seen the original I have nothing to compare this too.

Mr Brand plays a very witty, astute character who is made to grow up and become and adult. The humour in this film is first class, and some of jokes were very cleverly said, and would take someone with some degree of intelligence to understand.

All in all he basically played himself, which is a great character. I would have no problem watching this film again, nor recommending it to others.

Best Film I've seen in a long time
14 July 2013
After watching the first one only a few weeks ago to see what the fuss was about I fell in love with the film and couldn't wait for number 2 to come out.

As an adult I still love children's films but for me this is not a kids film, it is a family film with enough comedy in to entertain the parents as well as the kids.

From start to finish I was laughing my head off.

The minions are by far the funniest things ever and I am now a massive fan of these films and in love with the minions.

Definitely worth a watch, and I will be adding this to my DVD collection.

A Better Film than I Thought
25 April 2012
Warning: Spoilers
The version of the film I love the most is with Charlie Sheen and so when my other half put this on I wasn't expecting much.

It doesn't have the comedy aspect that I thought it would have but that doesn't matter to me. The bits of comedy that were there, such as the ticket giving for a horse dumping in the street was subtle but good. I found that funny, even though most people probably don't.

The visual aspects were great. Steampunk is very big in fashion at the moment and has been for the past couple of years or so, so the flying ship and some of the outfits fit very well with this theme.

Overall I thought it was an enjoyable film and would watch it again.
