    An Ealing type of tale from the Carry On team

    Produced by the team behind the 'Carry On' films and starring many regulars, 'The Big Job' has often been cited as unofficial entry in the series, but the set-up is much more of the Ealing variety. 'The Ladykillers' and 'The Lavender Hill Mob' form the template as a gang of criminals rent a room under false pretences, claiming to be birdwatchers when they are really interested in a nearby tree where they stashed some loot before serving time; whilst behind bars though, a police station has been built around the tree! The film chiefly derives laughs from the gang's failed attempts to rescue the money and the utter oblivion of the police force. This is an uneasy combination (the plot hinges on neither side possessing common sense) but there are many hilarious moments as all cast members are in fine form. Half a decade before his 'Please, Sir' days, Deryck Guyler is especially funny as the stuffy lead police sergeant, and Sid James, Joan Sims and Dick Emery as expectedly great. Sylvia Sims has a bit of thankless role as Sid's girlfriend, and the film as its weakest when focused on their marriage of a convenience (as well as a latter similar marriage) but for the most part, the irony of the basic set-up thankfully remains in focus. This is where the film succeeds best with an interesting message in terms of crime never paying (the ultimate fate of the money is a great twist too). Those expecting something as clever as 'The Lavender Hill Mob' or 'Carry On Camping' might be disappointed, but 'The Big Job' is a fairly solid film on its own terms, some incredulous silliness aside.

    A Carry On film in all but name.

    Silly story, silly characters ... very watchable. There is no let up in the pace of the dialogue and action throughout and there are many amusing moments. I liked the twist from the Carry On films where the women (Sylvia Syms and Joan Sims) are lusting after the men who are just not interested and too busy planning The Big Job even on their wedding nights - "Are you coming to bed?" "What for?"

    Fairly funny comedy.

    Based around the old chestnut of having crooks rob a bank, bury the loot but later find that that the area has been built upon, this is a fun mid-sixties comedy. Not quite a 'Carry On' (it's not as funny, for a start), it does share much of that series style (as well as sharing the production team, writer and three of its stars).

    Sid James is, well, Sid James in this. A bit muted perhaps, but it's always nice to see him. He is backed expertly by the likes of Dick Emery and Lance Percival, a fine pair of comedians who seldom were seen on the big screen. The big revelation (for me at least) is Sylvia Syms splendid comic performance. Syms is best known for her serious dramatic roles in the likes of 'Victim' or 'Ice Cold In Alex' and it is a pleasant surprise to see her in a comedy.

    'The Big Job' has its problems, the plot as mentioned above, was hardly original and plans for this movie began in the late fifties. Quite a few writers had a bash at the script (including Spike Milligan) and the final script, by Talbot Rothwell, while fair, was far from the comic masterpieces he was coming up with for the 'Carry On' series proper.

    If 'The Big Job' isn't a comedy classic, it is an entertaining little movie, well worth catching on one of its many television re-runs.

    A cracking Carry on...in all but name.

    Make no bones about it, this is very much a Carry on film, and a very good one at that. When you consider the writer, director and virtually the whole cast, the ingredients are all very much there for a comedy classic.

    The story is great, the moment where the trio of robbers discover a housing estate built on the site of their I'll gotten gains is brilliant, so funny.

    It is very well made, well shot, with a terrific script. The usual suspects are great Sid James, Joan Sima etc, but Dick Emery is a joy, and Sylvia Sims is a delight, such a beautiful woman.

    Loved it. 8/10

    Carry on with the big job

    Very much like the carry on movies with some well-known characters plus their usual antics. They were up to the task and for viewers it was a nice blast from the past. Thrills galore and this one gets a star rating of 6 in the mix.

      By 1965, black and white filmmaking was very much on the decline in the UK. This was one of the last feature films made at Pinewood Studios in black & white.
    • Blooper
      In a scene where the robbers are climbing into the police station back yard, the ladder they are using does not reach the top of the wall. However, when they drop down on the other side, the top of the ladder is at least 2 feet above the wall. Similarly when George first spies the ladder against the girl's window, it reaches above the window ledge, but when the young man climbs it when the couple are eloping, it does not reach to the window.
    • Citazioni

      [under sufference, George has got married to Myrtle; the registrar has just pronounced them husband and wife]

      George Brain: [to the registrar] You haven't heard the last of this. I shall appeal.
