Did You Ever Wonder Why moreFAQ
When Walter's wife is with the guy and he strips, why is she put off to see his willy Wonka woo woo? I didn't understand why she dosen't like Lance's Neener neener or what's the problem?What's this film?
Does it reflect the British society in anyway?

We went along not really knowing anything about this film or seeing anything. My daughters 16, 25 and wife tagged along.
surprise a simple and not overly taxing film to watch we all enjoyed the black comedy and did not expect the end. We did say to each other how can they end this film on a happy note. Will it just end in disaster? They carried it off perfectly and we left feeling that we had our moneys worth, and discussing the deeper meaning portrayed therein.
The treatment of death, happiness and how to get rid of our neighbor's dog!
Rowan ATkinson we surprisingly good and played his part as an almost straight vicar very well and we thought there was a good mixture of good bad and evil strewn about the film.
Not a taxing film to watch, make a good entertainment as so many try to involve you in a complex plot you have to be constantly remembering who was that.
