A very sweet film that is a refreshing alternative to the Richard Curtis version of English lovable comedy. The young leads do a remarkable job considering it's their first ever film they deliver the laughs. They use language which is probably like Chaucer to their 21st Century ears (I was once dropped to substitute for writing 'is skill' after my name on the football team sheet posted on the wall).
It's a bit flawed of course. I don't recognise the 'Oranges Are Not the Only Fruit' type family but I do remember a kid at school who's family wouldn't let him watch TV, so I'll give them that. The 'away from home mother' seemed a bit convenient also, and the 6th Form kids were all dressed like they were appearing on Top of the Pops and then moving on to The Wag. I wasn't like that.
All in all though, tons of fun. The French exchange student is a work of genius, there's a wonderful cameo from Eric Sykes and I'm sure there's an homage to Wes Anderson's Barclaycard commercial in there. I hope so, because it deserves one. Enjoy. (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0845046/)
