The Harry Hill Movie (2013)

As somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.

While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

The movie is made so realistic it has a lot of that WoW feeling at the right moments and never tooo over the top. the suspense is done so well and the emotion is felt. Very well put together with the music and all.

Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.

Harry Hill is and always has been a little bit like Marmite - you either like him or you hate him. The same can be said for The Harry Hill Movie.Harry Hill has always done surreal comedy, that's given, even back in the days when he was on Channel 4. In more recent times he became even more well known for TV Burp, which itself ran for 10 years and made Hill even more of a mainstream celebrity.Of course, having a successful show like TV Burp means anything you do afterwards is going to get compared to it. Including this film. Large chunks of the film are typical skits that with the right linking material wouldn't look out of place on TV Burp.The film's basic storyline essentially boils down to: Man takes dying hamster to Blackpool. Man's brother, who is into taxidermy and also a bit on the weird side, wants his brother's hamster to stuff. That premise stretches itself for 85 minutes - painfully. Not even the presence of Julie Walters, former Little Britain comedian Matt Lucas and the voice of Johnny Vegas can save this.Simon Bird features in this movie and can now have been said to have gone from one extreme to the other - his appearance in the excellent The Inbetweeners to his lacklustre own creation The King Is Dead (thankfully didn't last more than one series) and now Harry Hill Movie, which is only a step up from King is Dead due to the fact the movie had a bigger budget and was a better end production.There's a few things that could have worked better than they did but the end result appears to be a film made for the sake of making a film. The storyline starts off daft and gets dafter as the film progresses, ultimately concluding with a near obligatory final dance-off for no apparent reason.Harry Hill can do far better than this. Absolute die-hard Hill fans and those who loved, cherished and adored TV Burp will probably get a kick out of this but everybody else will just wonder what on earth is going on.

I decided to watch this movie, purely because I love the town of Blackpool and the sights that it offers. Little did I know that this movie was possibly the worst movie I've seen. The genre of this movie... 'comedy' is a complete lie, it was not even funny, and the jokes were either cheesy or didn't make any sense what-so-ever. Its an insult to the town of Blackpool. It may be funny for extremely young kids who wouldn't understand the jokes anyway, laughing at any old thing. Don't watch this movie, waste of valuable time. The normal Harry Hill's TV Burp is better and is funny in some cases, although only hints are shown in the movie, which was disappointing... Harry Hill is very lively in the movie, and very gormless, this did put a smirk on my face at one point. If you like humour which is weird/unrealistic, this movie is for you! P.S Penis

Excellent laugh. Why watch and rate this movie if you don't like "traditional" British non-sense surreal humor, which is genius just for its mere existence...: trying to set conventional logic and thinking on fire with the kind of best ever "freeforming" humor you would share with some friends after some drinks, creating ridiculous situations and characters.The people that made this movie, obviously, sincerely like and do want to entertain people, not indulge themselves achieving any high score on any commercially safe and traditional kind of humor. What here also should be mentioned is that the photography, cgi, mastering is of astonishing, much superior than expected level for a comedy-slash-musical- jokes&puppets-movie, which shows again the sovereignty that British filmmakers and broadcasters can flip out of their pocket without even taking it to serious themselves. I cant believe i nearly missed the laugh due to the ratings here, which from now on i surely wont take anymore as an orientation.

Review: I'm really not a fan of Harry Hill so I wasn't looking forward to this movie. I'm not into his sense of humour and I really don't find his jokes funny. The movie was really silly and the storyline was ridiculous. It's about his long lost brother trying to kidnap his hamster, which gets more stupid as the story unfolds. The movie was what I expected, although I did singalong to some of the songs. Julie Walters put in a great performance, but it wasn't enough to save the movie. Personally, I was just glad when it was over. Terrible!Round-Up: If your into Harry Hill's TV shows, then you will enjoy this movie, but I couldn't stand it. It amazes me that movies like this can get a budget and get released in the cinema. I can't see how studios can get excited about a hamster puppet getting rescued by its owner. Anyway, Harry Hill has got his own audience which must have enjoyed this movie, judging by the money that it made. I just hope that there isn't a sequel because there are much better concepts out there that are struggling to get a budget or a studio to back them. Budget: N/A Worldwide Gross: £2.6millionI recommend this movie to people who are into the Harry Hill TV series and that like comedies about A puppet hamster getting kidnapped. 1/10
