Brilliant Cast for this black comedy. Easy to follow plot makes this an ideal family film. Loved the soundtrack which creates a great atmosphere. Would make a great present for any time of the year.
Personally I don't think you can get better than a well produced British comedy and who better to do it than Jonathan Lynn, the man behind Yes Prime Minister. Bill Nighy is brilliantly casted as the old timer hit-man Victor Maynard and as always performs brilliantly. Don't expect the obvious comical gags that could be made in a more commercial interpretation of a solitary assassin situation comedy, the wit is clever and keeps you chuckling throughout the film. This film reminds British comedy's of the old, we need more!
