Not funny and just so damn mean spirited
17 May 2016
If you're expecting anyone to vacuum in the nude in this movie, look else where. In fact the movie would've been better if it were about a man who likes to vacuum in the nude and forces everyone else to do it and share his enjoyment.

Instead it's about a guy who has to work for this very unlikable prick and we have to spend the whole movie with him. Even at 75 minutes long, it is still unbearable.

There is not one laugh to be found in this movie. Not one. If there are any jokes, it maybe the fact that Tim Spall says "F***" a lot. That's not a punchline.

Much like "The Martins" which is also a very mean spirited and unfunny film, everyone is just unlikable and just shouts at each other.

Mean spiritedness can be done in good way like "In Bruges" and "American Psycho", but here it's like "Oh let's have everyone be an a****** and it'll be really funny!"

There are some of the stylish Danny Boyle shots here and now, but sadly they are the only saving grace in this movie.
