The Knack ...and How to Get It (1965)
The Knack......what a stinker!
I don't want to write much on this movie, I've already wasted enough time watching it. It certainly falls into the category of films your lucky to finish watching and if you do you wont again. Absolute rubbish, boring, pretentious and it made me want to kick the TV. I cant help but wonder who these folks are that have rated it so highly and have went on about its artistic merit, can we have seen the same film? do me a favour, watch it and if you don't feel like stamping on this DVD after watching it check your pulse, you may be brain dead.
Avoid like the plague, though given the choice I'd rather kiss a rat with the black death any day then sit through "The Knack" again
The Great McGonagall (1975)
Watch it once...and you wont watch it again....terrible
I don't like badmouthing films but this must be one of the worst I've ever seen, self-indulgent nonsense. Whilst I admire a lot of Spike Milligans work I cant help but feel that instead of giving us a straightforward telling of McGonagalls life (which certainly seems to have been entertaining enough) he decided to spoof it up to the point where it made no sense and as a viewer your sitting, wondering what on earth is going on and desperately looking for a storyline. It doesn't surprise me that the Director is the same guy who gave us the equally idiotic "The Magic Christian" but at least that had its moments and a top-notch cast, very amateurish, looks like its been filmed on a budget of £50 and on a cheap camcorder, what were they thinking! This is just a mess, only watch and indeed buy if your a completest and want to see all of Milligans/Sellers work. Simply not funny..
