    Sometimes a director writes a terrible script. But who's gonna tell them, or stop them? Also this film suffers from poor casting. But I'm sure it was fun to make. Nice views anyway. Sadly, a missed opportunity for a better, funnier film.

    It may be a little bit obvious, and taking pot shots at easy targets, but it is still a stinging indictment of the worst form of capitalism. And with a strong cast, it barrels along at a fair clip, delivering lots of laughs along the way.

    I liked this film in terms of the cast and as a satire its ok but I wouldn't call it a laugh out loud comedy. Its more of a withering look at people who live to flaunt themselves and don't bother to think about the impact their life and lifestyle has on other people, more 'average joes'. Its a bit depressing to think that the super rich can be so self obsessed but then that's hardly news I suppose. The setting (Greece) is nice, there are some pleasant panoramic shots shown and its a pretty watchable film. Its mildly amusing at times with some of the dialogue but its more effective in terms of showing the disdain such successful entrepreneurs can have (that's not to say that all are that way but some are). I thought it was interesting in terms of seeing so many British actors (Tim Key, David Mitchell, Stephen Fry etc.) in a foreign setting. Its a bit of a timely watch, what with refugee's featuring in the plot. As a satirical film, its not bad. Its not what I'd regard a great film as such, with the main character not being entirely likeable but its ok. The ending is quite good, I felt - somewhat apt (I won't go into any details so as not to provide spoilers) and thought provoking with the statistics provided just before the credits roll. If your a fan of Steve Coogan and/or keen on such satirical films then yes, I'd recommend it, otherwise not so much.

    Based on a real story of ''Sir'' Philip Green buying celebrities to be his friends to feed his ego. Good cast and recommended for fans of Coogans TV creations. Classic British comedy humour of an idiot climbing the social classes and failing.

    I cannot understand why this got such bad reviews. It's a complete satire and funny but with a great message. Should put people off buying clothes from the high Street

    A fine cast, a worthy subject, but doesn't quite come together.
