A British Classic
21 February 2004 | by petefoy – See all my reviews

One of the silliest films I've seen. It captures everything that separates British humour from the rest of the world. Captain Crummond is portrayed as an accidental hero, who wins through despite all of his failings. It is well directed. I particularly like the use of quirky English locations.
