Film: Sightseers (2012)
Director: Ben Wheatley
Starring: Alice Lowe and Steve Oram
Running Time: 1 hour 28 minutes
Rating: 9/10
Wednesday night, through the power of Twitter, the boy flatmate and I found ourselves at a screening of Ben Wheatley's new British comedy, Sightseers (thanks Grolsch Film Works). Having both heard great things about Wheatley's previous directorial outing, Kill List, and enjoyed the trailer immensely we were expecting great things.
We were not let down. Sightseers had us laughing out loud from start to finish, sometimes with discomfort as we realised, uncomfortably, that we were on Chris' side as he murdered people for disrespecting him and the area around him (littering, rudeness, etc.).
A genuinely funny British film, that touches a nerve. Worth seeing if you get the chance.
Plus, we got given one of these, the likes of which I haven't seen since I was a kid. I need to find somewhere awesome for him to live.
