First watched on cable, love English humor light hearted film with a plot that rolls along with a few surprising twists and turns a some LOL. Very nice addition to my English movie collection. I would recommend to a friend. Have already shared with one who enjoyed it almost as much as I do. She had a hard time understanding the English speak. I don't think its difficult, I think we where laughing and talking so much she just wasn't listening to what was said.
My son in law bought this for me. We share a love of British comedies and this one doesn't disappoint. The story is a bit old, but the acting is great, the characters believable, and the twist at the end was the cherry on top. And, while it's obvious to any fan that Patrick was already sick when this was filmed, he still had the sexy swagger and devilish smile. I would recommend this to anyone.
I loved this dark comedy! Rowan Atkinson and Maggie Smith are perfect. Atkinson plays a vicar in a small town who is under the thumb of his congregation and so worried about his church that he doesn't find the time to show the needed attention his wife, Kristin Scott, so very much wants! Patrick Swayze plays a leacherous American golf pro who puts the moves on all the women, but in particular Atkinson's wife because she is sorely in need of attention! In steps the new housekeeper (Smith) who proceeds to put all personal crisis to "sleep" in her own special way. I know death shouldn't be funny, but that's what a dark comedy is about, and it does it delightfully. You find yourself rooting for Smith. Who hasn't wanted all the bad people in their lives to just disappear? I highly recommend this movie. Between Atkinson and Smith it's a keeper!Read full review
Very funny film. A bit different with a few twists!! Excellent cast of respected actors and some brilliant newcomers. Have watched this film 5 times now. Easy watching - all my family enjoyed it. Nice to see Patrick Swayze and Kristen Scott Thomas in different than usual roles.
Stupid movie. Not worthy of the actors in it and Patrick Swazey is not engaging. It was delivered in good time from the vendor, but I thought i was stupid. Which I've already said.
