Hilarious subject matter with the most likeable motley crew ever to grace the big screen!

Easily among my top 10 Comedies that I watch atleast once a year! Killer soundtrack and a fabulous cast that elevates comedy to a whole new level! One of the BEST Buddy films ever!

The gang in Magic Mike don't have anything on Gaz and the gang. All Channing Tatum and his guys have are bulging muscles and sex appeal while these boys are unemployed, obese, impotent, old, depressed and suicidal. There's even a ginger in there for good measure. It's not even a contest.

I've always been told this movie was good, but I'm not quite sure why I never got around to watching it before. It finds humor in the face of hardship and I'm a sucker for that kind of comedy. The cast is damn fantastic too with Robert Carlyle, Mark Addy and Tom Wilkinson easily being the standouts.

It tackles all these serious issues with an end game solution that is both ridiculous and perfect.

It's like watching the Monty Python troupe only instead of a bunch of British folks doing physical comedy, it's a bunch of British folks getting physical; stripping and what not. Ok, it's nothing like Monty Python, but it's still pretty fucking funny.

If you ever wanted to see Tom Wilkinson strip down to his bare ass, this is clearly the film for you.

let suicidal man and guy with the big dick be gay 👏 glad that tiny hoop earrings are making a comeback

this was so heartwarming....magic Mike is shooketh

One of those films where everything is pretty much done serviceably yet nothing really stands out too much.

Just delightful. I was smiling the whole time. Great to see Mark Addy.

I truly dk what I thought of this when I saw it as a kid I wish I knew,,,,but its nice+warm now

I'm gonna make a list of movies which heavily involve: northern England, dancing, socioeconomic hardship (/mining) so far I have 4

‘The Full Monty’ (1997) by Peter Cattaneo. What more do you need for a good quality comedy? Sheffield. 6 lads are unemployed and hopeless until pottymouthed Gaz (Robert Carlyle) suggests they all become strippers for one night only and go ‘all the way’ for the crowd. Set against the backdrop of a dying steel industry, this honest and refreshing 90’s comedy is not overly sentimental or challenging. The comedy is in the camaraderie, the human performances and the banter, the Donna Summer queue dancing and the nicking stuff from Asda. You don’t forget the context, Northern lads doing something risky to break out from the job hunts and the depression. But you will be swept away in the music, the gags and the dancing. A grade British lovely stuff.

The Full Monty ist im Grunde genommen Brassed Off mit Strippern. Ganz nett, mehr aber auch nicht.

Muy divertida y corta, con números musicales geniales y algún que otro momento bochornoso, pero siempre dentro del buen gusto.

Fat, David, is a feminist issue. 

One: in the Broadway adaptation, spooky bae Patrick Wilson played the lead role

Two: there’s an episode of Boy Meets World that parodies this film

Three: The Full Monty has a lot to say about maleness, masculinity, and socioeconomic status. This film is bountiful for an essay through a queer theory lens. 

Four: honestly, shoutout to Once Upon a Time for introducing me to the strange enchantment of Robert Carlyle. Without that, I’d never have watched this.

I love going full monty...
