Is Harry on the Boat?

I have not read the book but I will now an amazing cast a cracking example of what great young talent the uk has to offer Danny Dyer is just perfect as the lead Brad, The storyline is nice and flowing and although it isnt quite like the ibiza i remember, it was close

Well worth a watch ....

Sky One again takes residence in the clubbers capital of Ibiza. The teenage stars of the 21st Century take centre stage in this tv movie focusing on the adventures of a group of reps in Ibiza. This show has comedy, romance, drama, and sexual scenes all round, and all in abundance. A little of the acting may seem a little hammy, and a bit of the story may seem forced upon, but all that is overlooked if you appreciate the sheer vulgar comedy and sex scenes which will have you wanting to see more. Is Harry on the Boat? I would have to say he is totally on the ball.

Is Harry on the Boat is a hilarious tale of holiday reps in Ibiza, portraying the typical 18-30's holiday to a tee! The actors performances are brilliant, Danny Dyer as new rep Brad, introduced to the debauchery,including an interesting competition, as we are by the hilarious Wil Mellor as Greg. And of course we cant forget Marios 'Big Man!!!'.

A brilliant film full of laughs that I would recommend to anyone! Though it is not without its serious moments the laughs come thick and fast.

A summer movie to watch with mates that makes you dream of holidays, or even packing in your day job and signing up to be a rep yourself!!

p.s The soundtrack generates much interest but an official soundtrack was never released unfortunately. However i do know that one of the songs is Jaydee- Plastic Dreams. its from my favourite bit of the film so check it out for yourself!!!

This comedy, based on the book by Colin Butts, follows the adventures of a group of holiday reps from a 18-30 like club during one season in Ibiza. Very much of its time, the film stays true to the book with an abundance of sex and drugs. Although the film is carried by the likable nature of most of the characters and some humorous situations with some unusual plot twists, it ultimately ends up being a boy meets girl true love is better than free sex story. Indeed one of the criticisms is that the ending is a little rushed and thus unsatisfactory. While it does make for compelling viewing and is quite amusing, in essence it is an update version of the successful 60's carry on films but given a modern twist.

Whilst I can;t pretend to have experienced many of the things in the storyline, Sex, drugs, flirting, relationships, revenge, sun, alcohol etc. I can relate to some and appreciate that the others are good representations of the sorts of things that can happen.

I found the feature length production to be greatly entertaining and full of well acted scenarios creating a good sense of what it could be like to have a lucky lifestyle of a young holiday rep.

The only fault I could give is that they only made a one off, based on the book. there was so much scope for at least a mini series of say 6 one hour follow up stories.

Nice scenery, nice bodies, fun story. Great location.
