Meer oor hierdie fliek

The action begins as the Nazis -- led by a camp Hitler in a dress (Alan Cumming) -- plan an invasion of England. As Winston Churchill (Timothy Spall) plots an evacuation to Scotland... somewhere in England's green and pleasant countryside, farmworker Chris (Ewan McGregor) is trying to win the heart of Daisy (Rosamund Pike) while rueing the fact that he can't fight for his country because his "hands are too big". When the Germans finally invade the blitz London, it falls to Chris and his countryside cohorts to come to the rescue and the raggle-taggle band head to Hadrian's Wall to seek help from the "bloodthirsty" Scots. Taking more than a few liberties with history and featuring an all star voice cast, Jackboots on Whitehall is the funniest and most outrageous movie of the year -- or as we like to call it: 'Team America meets Inglorious Basterds!' © 2010 Zeus Films AIE and Pegaso Pictures AIE.

I wanted to like this but it lacked maturity in its language and jokes. Really it could have been more consistent with its puns and jokes especially after that ripper opening but it didn't develop well and began to feel more and more like a teenagers movie from the 70s.
