Lynsey Davidson’s review:
A fucking fantastic movie with outstanding wit and humour. I can quote pretty much the entirety of this film and still find it funny after having seen it so many times, "Gosh!". I adore the soundtrack as well with songs such as 'Forever Young' by Alphaville and 'The Promise' by When in Rome which truly capture the sort of late 80s/early 90s mood the film conveys. And every character we meet is original and unique that I can't pick out one I hate, such as Pedro and Kip, "Napoleon, don't be jealous that I've been chatting online to babes all day" (and it has to be said in his voice as well).
Best scene is of course that iconic dance at the end of the film to 'Canned Heat' by Jamiroquai. It basically sums up who Napoleon is and love how everyone applauds him.
A film EVERYONE should see in their lives.
