No it's not. It's occasionally funny, but very crude. Go and see it only if nothing else on at the cinema appeals.

yes very crude indeed. but it had to be - its a satire. so what if its rude and crude, its a film - dont take things so seriously.

it is more than occasionally funny, and is the best film out at cinema at the moment, with the exception of "Sideways" and "Closer" - which are two outstanding films

It made me laugh. A lot. Worth seeing, definitely, I liked the montage song best.

It's a good film, but you probably need to be a Gerry Anderson fan to really GET it.

I agree, it was very funny and clever. A 'whirling vortex of satire'.

Now, I consider myself to be relatively broadminded and wise in the ways of pornographic material, for scholarly reasons, obviously..., but I don't know if my brain could handle a full length puppet sex scene... good lord, the short version was almost too much!

I plan to see T/A; i'll have to rent it, I guess. But I thought "Closer" stank to high heaven. The characters were shallow. They never developed. I could not sympathize with them in any way. And what was the plot, anyway? Was this some "European" movie that I just didn't "get" because I am hopelessly American? It was the first movie I almost walked out on. Why was it good?
