Breaking the Bank

This is a funny send-up of British banking and capitalism in general. There were many laugh-out-loud moments. I recognised many of the prime banking locations in London. This film is much better than the 1 out of 10 crowd say.

Just relax, watch it, and enjoy yourself.

Nothing profound, not deep, just fun to watch, and had the Director mixed the sound better, would have been more fun. But they allow the music to play so loudly over the voices in too many people, that you miss what was said and it is more than annoying! Dialog should not be competing with music people! Please stop it. We should not have to struggle to understand what has been said. What is the point?

It is fun, that's all. If you really try to critique it, it becomes more work than watching it. It's primary value is to counter the dread of the daily news, and it does that well.

I saw a private preview of this film with some friends. In my opinion we all thought this was one of the worst films we'd ever seen ! Kelsey Grammar, what possessed you, with all your millions and your outstanding comic performances in Frasier to appear in this Z film ? Beyond me ! We had to stay until the end of the film as obviously as an invited audience one could not leave, when the credits came up I looked round and my friend was already at the exit ! When I saw the plug for this film on The Graham Norton Show that this film had actually been released I was in shock ! A vague memory of the plot escapes me, the main thing was watching Kelsy Grammar in a really cringeworthy film.

A truly dire film.

Wasn't nearly as clever or funny or fun as say trading places. No real message or theme. But it was dumb cute fun with good actors. Automatic 6. Only not giving it higher cuz it wasn't very funny and nothing happened that was especially memorable But worth a watch just cuz. Love Kelsey grammar and his British wife from episodes. She's just hilarious and Fun always.

Fun mix of sentiment, comedy, and social commentary.

Very fun actors.

Sadly went with trendy overly-obvious innuendo rather than being classy. Definitely not PG.

Beautiful views of London.

Great one-liners.
