Review of Perrier's Bounty (2009) by Jebus C — 18 Jul 2011
Fun movie, good cast. Shame the script doesn't live up to the one liner gems that pepper the trailer but that's what trailers are for. While the cast is strong for a little Irish Indy the show is stolen by Jim Broadbent.
He has a showy character, for sure, but he makes the most of his screentime and out-entertains all around him. Ultimately though the film falls somewhat flat. Mainly due to the plot being a series of increasingly unlikely coincidences and failed opportunities.
The excellent cast ensure the film never entirely loses its way but the finished article isn't the sum of the good individual parts.
