Carl England checks out the underwhelming Huge and The Sentimental Engine Slayer at the Edinburgh International Film Festival...
After my previous round-up of some pretty good movies from the Edinburgh International Film Festival, I'm afraid that in this latest I must head to the opposite end of the scale and talk about the underperformers.
Huge

Warren is a new stand-up comedian, who can't help but fail at his act.
