12 in a Box

Just browsing through amazon video and came across this. I have to admit it did peak my attention because of Miranda Hart. Her character is plastered across the front cover, so I assumed she was one of the main characters...she's not. Nevertheless I actually really enjoyed this film. It's very low budget with a cast I've never seen before, but I found it really funny. For the subject matter, it could have been heaps wittier but it wasn't badly done. They could have done a lot more with the characters, more secrets unfolded, a few more little twists here and there. I laughed throughout though and I absolutely loved the ending, hence my 7 rating. Give it a go!

I feel like I would've approached this film more fairly if I hadn't bought the UK version with Miranda Hart's beaming face plastered all over it. She appears in person for maybe... 6 minutes? And then there's another 10 minutes of screaming off screen that was probably done from abroad because she suddenly got famous and goddamn this film wanted its sixpenn'th.

So putting aside Miranda Hart's performance (like... she clearly knew she had money on the way right?..? I have never seen a professional comedian give so few shits) Who are we rooting for here?

Sex pest who literally cackles with delight on finding that the two slender girls are involved (who's "gayer", the women in a relationship or the man engaged to a woman but bad at secretly carrying bodies up stairs? The latter, apparently!)

Wife of Bastard who rolls her eyes but never follows through on her valid argument that the money would all be hers either way?

Barry from Eastenders?! No Seriously Barry from Eastenders. Okay I've run out of jokes I'm done.

Stupid film. Waste of time. Plot holes, unconvincing characters, ridiculous storyline and the ending was literally the worst ending ever. Do not recommend.

We had been looking for some films that appeared Different to the Formula Driven Rom Coms, and Sci Fi Movies' of late, and Discovered this on Amazon, and it is fair to say we thoroughly enjoyed it, a really Clever, Different, well thought out Film that was well worth a Watch for anyone. We would Recommend it to anyone wanting to watch something very Different to the normal stuff put out these days, a really enjoyable English Farce with plenty of Laugh out Loud Moments, as long as you don't watch it with your arms folded and a sulky look on your face because Miranda isn't in every second of the Film, she does however play a small but important and very funny part in it, but if she wasn't in it at all, it was still very much worth a watch. Really, Really Enjoyed it. Great Fun.

I watched this with my son and we enjoyed it!! Easy watching for a Saturday afternoon and it gave us a few laughs
