Reviews
Self-important, over-dramatic, uninspired.
Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.
There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.
Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.
I am a big fan of Take That (Gary Barlow, Mark Owen, Howard Donald and Jason Orange - Robbie Williams might come back one day, you never know), and I really liked An Audience with..., so here's another similar show. They again perform some old classics, and along the way answer fan questions and other stuff. Songs of the evening included "Greatest Day" (their latest number one), "Shine", "Back For Good", "Patience", "Never Forget", new track "Julie", and a couple of their other new tracks. The show included a special guest appearance by Geraldine McQueen (Peter Kay), winner of the (spoof) reality show Britain's Got The Pop Factor... to ask them questions to see how much they know about each other. Good!
