The Curse

Seeing the PJDN boys in anything will always be worth it for me and likewise normally big Tom Davis but his character's voice in this is terrible can hardly understand him and don't think I laughed once. If you don't know the boys work then I can see this being a bit hard work tbh but their chemistry and timing and the great 80s detail make this worth a watch definitely.

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.

This is OBJECTIVELY a show that should be rated a 7 or above. People crying in the reviews are probably so used to having a super modern show, with super popular actors with perfect accents, and perfect styling and perfect acting etc etc.. Pulling up references of other shows with the same actors is also nonsensical.

I have never seen any of the actors before, to be honest, nor do i watch many UK shows. Watched this one in one session entirely, its fun, its imperfect, love the plot and characters. Crime comedy is the new thing nowadays, and i dont complain. "Only murders in the building" got me hooked on the genre, and i want more and more!

The only thing that was somewhat annoying is that few of the characters dont seem to know how to get a complete sentence out..like ever...so much stuttering going on. But other than that, its a very nice relaxing show that leaves you wanting more. Unless you are one of those 1-5 ratings, triggered by people with accents and 80s fashion.

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.
