Not much to say it was a classic British comedy.I think what made it so immersive is how real it felt.They really nailed the humanity and the British culture in this movie and it really made me feel at certain points in the overall and sub plot with the romance.Simon pegg is always entertaining to see on screen.The soundtrack was good.Looked like nothing special and wasnt just used alot if face shots which added to feeling as part of it.Wouldn’t watch again but enjoyed it.👍

Surprise David Walliams appearance. Jumpscare. Nice heartfelt film. Predictable plot but cute nonetheless.
