You, Me and Him

Faye Marsay stole the show in here, a not-so-feel-god comedy drama that will most likely go unnoticed by most. It has some strengths in funny moments but it's definitely not enough.

Final grade: 4/10

David, David, David - do you not read scripts before you agree to appear in childish panto? The only redeeming contribution to this pile of excrement is the casting director - she / him must have a touch of genius to attract good character actors to sign up to a life un-enhancing period of agony before the camera, the faster this is buried and Ms Aitkens gets back to her media studies degree the better.

What could possibly go wrong when you combine a gay couple (one a career driven lawyer - Lucy Punch, the other a pot-smoking, fun loving layabout - Faye Marsay ) and throw in their neighbour, an annoying bearded Casanova (David Tennant)? Answer - quite a lot.

I really enjoyed this inventive funny debut feature by writer/director Daisy Aitkens. Well worth checking out!!

No spoilers here. This is just the best fun ever. Well done Showtime for snapping it up. Written and helmed by Daisy Aitkens it does what it's supposed to; makes 'em laugh, makes 'em cry. But mainly laugh. With a rumoured budget of only $3million God knows how they managed it. I guess if you get the script right the good actors will follow and the young Brit pack guys seem to have piled in here. David Tenant, Lucy Punch and Fay Marsay headline an excellent cast aided and abetted by the usual gang of oh so polished and subtle UK character actors that we expect in these Downton days. It is about two women, a couple couple, who despite being total opposites, go together as comfortably as yin and yang symbols. One is the business woman with her sharp suits and mind, the other an anguished artist with seemingly permanent artists block. Their warmth, vulnerability and loving humor gives the movie its whole feelgood thing. Then they get pregnant at the same time. And there is the third side to the triangle in the form of David Tenant who goes into a hilarious new high gear as the neighbour from one of the outer suburbs of hell. But no more. Go see, have a great laugh and take a tissue.... For the tears thank you people!

First of all, the ten star reviews, were they written by cast members? No way on this Earth is this a perfect movie.

Pluses, the cast. Marsay and Punch are both pretty good, they manage to lift the script somewhat because they are both damn fine actresses. The mouse is cute.

Negatives, just about everything else. It's a hideous script, some of the lines are cringe worthy.

Question, has David Tennant ever looked more incredibly sexy than he does here? Oh my god the man is glorious, I am slightly surprised he agreed to do this.

Decent, 5/10.
