The Curse

Just watched all 6 episodes in one go, absolutely excellent. The characters are all quirky in their own individual way, the story moves at a cracking pace and is very funny. Looks like there will be a second series and i can not wait.

I stumbled on this by accident and gave it a shot, binge watching all episodes. The acting was good in parts and not so in just one, for example, what is with Micks accent? I couldn't understand what he was saying in the first episode, it was so exaggerated that he was almost incomprehensible and mumbling words. That really put me off the series, it may me cringe every time he 'spoke'. It was however great to see the 80's clothes and was such a blast from the past. Would I recommend it? Probably not based on Mick's irritating accent, which is a shame as I love British TV series...

I'm surprised so many people didn't enjoy this. It's just a a 6 part comedy about a bunch of useless petty criminals who take on a robbery which is way out of there depth. I really enjoyed the way it was set in the 1980s in someways it reminded me of some of those classic Ealing comedies of the 1950s and 60s in particular the Lavender Hill mob.

The dialect and filming are in the style of a Guy Richie movie. My only complaint would be the acting isn't great, much of the cast are from the BAFTA award winning People Doing Nothing. Sadly this shows there limitations as actors although the rest of the cast give solid performances.

7/10.

Standard cringe/awkward comedy that was fresh 15 years ago. You know what I mean...in the middle of a very tense situation everyone is awkwardly arguing about some trivial, pedantic detail. Wow, hilarious.

Overlayed on top of a standard heist plot from 90s movies complete with the catchy music montages, split screens, horizontal and vertical wipes and dissolves. It's all pretty cliche.

Really enjoyed this programme, thought I'd watch 1 then binged watched the whole season, bring on season 2.

It not a lol comedy, more of a dark humour.

Took me a while to realise most of the main cast are from people just do nothing.

I didn't enjoy peeps jst do nthg but I enjoyed This.
