Paul Dood's Deadly Lunch Break

An embarrassingly cheap British rip-off of SPREE which sees a guy losing his talent show audition before going on a rampage of revenge. Made for a pittance during the pandemic and it shows; everything is stilted making this feel like a sketch show at times. Sadly, it's also not in the least bit funny, with the humour over obvious and awkward in that British way. A shame as there are some normally reliable faces (Kris Marshall, Pippa Heyward) here.

I love British comedies. This is British but not a comedy. I curled my toes throughout, thinking it would get better. It didn't.

Don't waste your time.

I absolutely LOVED THIS!! I'm a neurodivergent teen, making it hard for me to pay attention and It can take me weeks to watch a full movie, and this is one of the very few films I've watched in one sitting!!

Me being who I am, usually makes me find the unfunny, well, funny, and there's a lot of movies that are supposed to be serious or are poorly done I find hilarious. I think if you're apart of genZ and have poor humour, you'd enjoy this film like me and my sister (I'd also recommend watching this with someone so you can mock/add commentary to the film.)

Imo, this has to be my FAVOURITE movie that Tom Meeten has been in, I was excited to watch this because I've enjoyed him in many other movies or shows and this didn't disappoint me.

But then again, I am just a neurodivergent teen writing a review just for fun, so listen to the many other reviews that there are.

I also apologise if this is written very poorly, I wrote this at night plus I'm not a good writer at all.

The thing that drew me to this quirky film was the name Nick Gillespie, he was DOP on the brilliant series Trigger Point and he wrote & directed this. Admittedly you probably have to have a very twisted sense of humour to enjoy every juicy detail but it's absolutely hilarious from start to end credits. Although it's not a big budget outing, it's beautifully shot and edited throughout and the acting was superb.

Do yourself a favour and take time out to watch this gem, you will not be disappointed.

What starts out as a goofy comedy turns into a revenge film. What better way to be on a lunch break then to seek revenge on those who crushed his dreams and left your mom to die. A delightfully funny film with deadly twists. Director Nick Gillespie wowed me with this gem!
