A good movie

I wasn't really sure what to expect from this flick but since I always had a weak spot for Chiwetel Ejiofor, I was quite eager to check it out. In fact, it is rather amazing that even after '12 Years A Slave' managed to win the Best Picture Academy Award, the guy still seems to be completely underrated when he is easily one of the best actors of his generation. Anyway, coming back to our main feature, to be honest, I don't think the story was really original or great whatsoever. I mean, sure, it was entertaining but it was basically the old gimmick of the fish-out-of-water context, something we have seen so many times before. Still, I enjoyed this feature for what it was and it is probably thanks to Chiwetel Ejiofor who gave, as usual, an amazing perfomance. Indeed, everything he does is never a disappointment, this movie is no expection and from the moment he is on the screen, you really think that you are watching something special and without him, I'm afraid the whole thing would have been just another average British comedy with a realistic social background. To conclude, even though it is nothing amazing whatsoever, it is actually a pretty good comedy and it is worth a look, especially if you like the genre.
