Bewertung von cropsy72
I saw this short film on ITV after it was advertised in the break between Coronation Street and I'm A Celebrity. What Goes On Tour is a funny valleys-humour comedy, very much in the style of Grand Slam, Satellite City, High Hopes or Sticky Wickets. It features a young Welsh rugby team returning from tour in their battered old bus. Best friends Smiler and Griff have promised their girlfriends that they will behave themselves, but team captain Richard has decreed that any player who doesn't get off with a girl by the time the tour is over will have to pay an embarrassing forfeit. Will Smiler and Griff remain faithful, or will they go all-out to get a last chance kiss at the service station? After all, what goes on tour stays on tour... doesn't it?
The actors are all game amateurs apart from some star turns from some familiar old Welsh faces and everyone does a good job, in particular bus driver Jams Thomas and team coach Wayne Hall who have some hysterical moments together. The comedy is pretty broad, especially a gag involving a black bin liner full of pee, and it pays to stick with this one until after the end credits have rolled. The script is tight and packs a lot in for such a short film.
Director Kieron Self is better known as the Welsh dentist in BBC comedy My Family and also has a starring role on the much-loved sitcom High Hopes.
What Goes On Tour is a fun, satisfying and funny romp and a pretty good indicator of the kind of antics rugby teams get up to. Parents of young players should probably not watch this film!

"Life is pain. Pain is everything. You will learn."
On its release 25 years ago, Class of 1984 was criticised for being too far fetched. Few critics could buy into director Mark Lester's ultra-violent vision of kids taking weapons into classrooms or schools fitted out with metal detectors.
Lester intended his flick as a wake up call to America about increasing levels of school violence. While Columbine may have proved that Lester's vision didn't go quite far enough, he sure as hell knows how to create the perfect B-movie.
Brutal, fast and fun, such outrageously violent scenes as Andy cutting off a gang member's arm with a circular saw or burning another pupil alive ensured that Class of 1984 was heavily cut and even banned in numerous countries (recent R2 and R1 releases are fully uncut).
Lester has claimed that he introduced America to punk rock with this movie. While that's debatable, the gang all look the part, although Stegman boasts an unfortunate haircut that puts the 'wave' in 'new', and the soundtrack mixes the likes of Fear and Teenage Head with Alice Cooper.
With its stylised brutality, punk rock soundtrack and relentless pace, Class of 1984 still hits you like a motorcycle chain to the jaw.
