Romantic Getaway

Just finished watching this tonight and overall it was entirely enjoyable. I didn't weep with laughter but there were plenty of chuckles to keep me entertained and it was refreshing to watch a show with half an hour episodes for a change.

The premise was interesting, the execution ridiculous, which is what you expect in a comedy, and the ending sufficiently satisfying. The "uncle" Ketan character was an absolute show stealer.

I particularly enjoyed the storyline of the tax office arriving to audit them...probably even less likely than how easily Romesh's character stole and fenced a Ferrari!!

7/10.

Katherine Ryan's acting is amateur and unconvincing.

I have always, enjoyed her comedy, in the past and hilarious comments, on shows.

Seemed to be the smart one but made so many wrong, stupid choices.

She was expressionless. It didn't matter, whether she was happy, sad, or frightened. Flat effect.

Too much Botox, for an actress.

Johnny Vegas, Romesh, and the main bad guy were believable. Great acting, although,Romesh switched from a scared rabbit to an angry lion, constantly.

Writer did a terrible job, with followthrough and logic.

Much of the storyline did not make sense. It looked like parts of the story was cut out.

Liked the ending. Convincing.

I loved this, it was a modern day farce. Good one liners Kathrine and Romesh are so great.

I do feel something was missing not sure what.

But it was fun like an English fun with Dick and Jane.

I love that Kathryn was the smart quick and Romesh the absolute mess.

The end was ok. But could of given it a bit more I think.

But I would watch it again without a second thought Jonny Vegas was too funny.

Saying that though, I would of loved a bit more, needed a bit more like nuns on the run. It needed to be filled out a bit.

More tension I think. Romesh is a promising writer

Really loved it though. Give it a chance.

This is possibly the least funny comedy I've seen, ever. Romesh couldn't act his way out of a paper bag, I don't know why production companies keep giving him airtime (especially after Reluctant Landlord). He just stands around looking clueless for the majority of the show. The storyline is a series of idiotic choices that no sane (or insane) person would ever make. Worst of all they've managed to make Johnny Vegas unfunny. Not one character was in any way believable. This could have been good, the basic concept wasn't too bad, shame the acting was so poor with zero chemistry between the couple who wanted a family. They feel more like siblings who fell out a long time ago, not lovers who are desperate for children. Utter dross.

I really enjoyed this, acting was good, script was well written. Don't mind the haters, this is worth a watch, looking forward to next season, nice finish leaves it hanging.

Really nice to see so many class comedians in this type of production. Romesh, Katherine, Johnny and supporting comedians and cast all were brilliant in their roles. The pace was fast it didn't stall, it's hard to find fault with this kind and style of production and the way it was delivered. I am not someone who provides reviews, this would be my first, I checked on IMDb to see if there was a second season and thought it was important to provide a balanced view given the small handful of initial negative responses that truly are unfounded. Credit to the cast and production team this delivers.
