The point of a comedy is for it to be comical and this simply was not. To be honest I found most of the humour childish and in poor taste. None of the stars are comical actors, they are the usual bunch of British b-movie actors who all seem to be in the same films with the same themes. The only thing that made me laugh was how bad the acting was. I was surprised to Richard E Grant in there but I suppose its proof that the reason has hit us all as I'm guessing he was only in this movie for the cash or as a bet. There were a few hot chicks in it but overall it was a weak film. No idea why its rated as high as 4.5

Finally thought i'd give this a watch last night, despite the critics terrible reviews of his movie, and oh dear oh dear oh dear... How right they were. Simon's character James was far too 'done to death' with 'cameos' being very few and far between of Actors i'd actually heard of! The girl who played Patch in the movie (Stephanie Leondis) was quite sweet to watch, her chemistry with James on screen was believable, but that of her bumbling friends were most certainly not. Hannah (Gemma Atkinson from Hollyoaks 'fame') was uncharismatic, wooden and dull as James's lifelong crush, along with Simon himself sometimes falling into the same lower league. I felt throughout casting could have gone to an array of more talented, realistic actors out there, although Ampersands character had his moments of greatness. All that said the end has a very funny twist with a psychiatrist, which did make me laugh. One movie though, I'd never watch again or recommend, and want that 90 mins of my life back! 3/10

Really loved this film when I saw it at the cinema and loved it even more having watched it on DVD! For me it did everything that a film like this needed to do and more. It was funny, gripping and had really well rounded characters who did a great job at really bringing the whole thing together! I love the ensemble cast too who although large really made it feel like the film was covering a large demographic of people. Im not sure what the budget for the film was but it seemed as if the filmmakers were really getting a lot out of what i would imagine would not have been a massive budget for an independent British feature film. All in all a great watch with a lovable cast and slick direction. for the film deserves a 10/10

So Loser vs Twilight! So the film makers are nothing if not brave. I'm guessing the general audience who go and see romantic comedies are teenage girls, no? So why release against Twilight whose main audience is... Teenage girls, right? It's a shame because I loved this film, I thought it was so sweet and yes it had some laugh out loud moments but the love story was great and as embarrassing as it is to admit, I didn't see the end coming. I believed it was going in the direction they were taking me, that's all I'll say without risking spoilers. Martin Kemp was brilliant as the love God, he's a movie star and I'd love to see him in more movies, although his IMDb says he's now directing. A shame, too beautiful not to be on screen more. My favourite part was the outtakes at the end and that's not a back handed compliment, I really enjoyed the film but the outtakes were a riot!

It's funny how there are so many apparently individual IMDb users who are rating this film as something that deserves to be up there with The Godfather and The Empire Strikes Back whereas users on other sites overwhelmingly rate it with the lowest numbers possible. Comedies should either make you laugh or at least be satisfyingly witty. Not this one. The script was definitely a one-pass with no adult supervision, random scenes were thrown in for no reason, the "twist" was pointless, the resolution was unsatisfying as it had no prelude and none of the characters were consistent - only Craig Conway managed to be the same person from beginning to end. The cinematography was unimaginative, the sound was regularly at whisper level and the director and editor seemed to be working on two different projects. It's also important to highlight that the vast majority of celebrity appearances were so fleeting that it is PAINFULLY obvious that they are only there to slap on the poster in order to con an audience into picking up the DVD. Producers - if you're going to do that, at least give us a decent story to watch! I'm not a basher of independent film. I love decent low-budget stuff but it is important to balance out all these rave reviews with the truth. Oh, and whichever critic allowed themselves to be quoted on the poster as claiming this was "laugh out loud clever" needs a career change. There were two or three smile-worthy moments at best.

What better way to warm yourself during an ever worsening English winter than this lil gem? Haha They should put that on the poster!!! I LOVED it! Made me cry! Couldn't believe it! Haven't cried at a film in absolutely ages!!! Haha Craig Conway who plays Ampersand is sooooo funny, I remember finding him funny in Doomsday, I'm not sure if I was supposed to find him funny in that film but my days was he funny in this one. And Gemma Atkinson, I would actually marry her, seriously, she is soooooo sexy, and there's no way on planet earth that Simon Phillips would get near her in real life but in this film they manage to sell it.

This movie is well worth the watch. It has some entertaining moments, and does draw you into the story. You can connect with a variety of characters, regardless of your personal story. Just watch it and try to connect it to your life, and this movie will help illustrate what is wrong in the world in many ways, but also shows how some things that have been devalued by the media and society are the most important. Don't look past your friends, and seek solely money or personal fame. There are many funny scenes in this movie, though for the most part there aren't many known actors, shows how on a lower budget a good movie can be made. It takes the basic love-interest storyline a step further as well.

OK, so I'm going to hold my hands up and admit that I was actually in attendance at the premiere of this film, it was ram packed (people sitting in the aisle's!) and I assume the audience must have at least leaned friendly. However the one thing about a comedy is that if no one laughs, the film isn't working... Well Loser brought the house down! ! It's a long, long time since I was in a cinema with such an incredible atmosphere and I go to the cinema a lot, including many premiere's. The film is packed full of great cameos and all the performances are pitch perfect, everyone seems to be having an absolute ball from Richard E Grant right through and the outtakes over the end credits seem to confirm this. OK the script hardly reinvents the wheel but it isn't short of a couple twists and turns and the end is belting, I came out with a huge grin, what more can you ask for from a British romcom?! HIGHLY recommend.

I have an idea how difficult it is to make an independent film but at the same time you always have to remember that the general people who go to the cinema don't care, all they're interested in is being entertained. After all they pay the same for a movie ticket to a tiny Brit film as they do for a ticket to Transformers! So when I went into an insider screening of HTSBAL at Showcase I tried very hard to see through they eyes of someone who doesn't know the work that goes into these projects. I'm not sure if I managed that but what I am certain of is that I thought this film was quite brilliant, hilarious as it is heartfelt, the humour balancing perfectly with the character development and the story exposition. The performances were all round strong with no exception and the chemistry between our principals Phillips, Conway, Atkinson and Leonidas was great, I know three of them have worked together again and this comes as no surprise to me. Plus the outtakes at the end had me rolling, I love it when films do outtakes. I think I may actually have to check it out one more time.
