Movie Review by B Movie Ben
March 16th, 2007

Grant shines again

I know this wasn't a huge success. Grant committed to doing it before
his huge hit Four Weddings and a Funeral, but it was fun nonetheless.

The conflict between the uptight Englishmen and the Welsh villagers
over whether they had a hill or a mountain was extremely funny, and
their solution - getting Ian McNeice drunk and keeping Hugh Grant busy
with Tara Fitzgerald, who also played Grant's wife in Sirens added to
the hilarity.

The randy barkeep comes up with the solution to the problem, ostensibly
to sell more beer, but it gets the whole town working together and make
for an enjoyable film.
