HORRIBLE HISTORIES – THE ROTTEN ROMANS

5 out of 10

REVIEW COMING SOON

Release date: 26th July 2019

Director: Dominic Brigstocke (Tracey Ullman’s Show (TV) / Porridge (TV) / Horrible Histories (TV) / Reggie Perrin (TV) / The Armstrong and Miller Show (TV) / The Kevin Bishop Show (TV) / Green Wing (TV) / Smack The Pony (TV) / I’m Alan Partridge (TV) / Harry Enfield and Chums (TV) / The Mrs Merton Show (TV) / The Crystal Maze (TV) / Saturday Night Clive (TV))

Cast: Emilia Jones, Sebastian Croft, Craig Roberts, Kim Cattrall, Kate Nash, Rupert Graves, Nick Frost, Alex Macqueen, Lee Mack, Dan Renton Skinner, Joanna Bacon, Jordan Scowen, Alexander Armstrong, Sanjeev Bhaskar, Samantha Spiro, Dave Lamb, Ella Smith, Tony Way, Jamie Demetriou, Ncuti Gatwa, Tony Gardner, Katherine Jakeways, Katy Wix, Terry Deary and Chris Addison with Warwick Davis and Derek Jacobi

Writer: Terry Deary / Caroline Norris & Giles Pilbrow

Trailer: HORRIBLE HISTORIES – THE ROMANS

The second Horrible Histories movie is every bit as gleefully bonkers as the first. Whilst it may not be as consistently funny as the Bill, it’s still daft enough to make you laugh like a tit for 90 minutes. That grown adults get to make such stupid films and manage to keep a straight face is commendable. Terry Deary’s unstoppable brands, which begun as books, is a wonderful way to cheat your way into becoming a historian in no time but don’t expect all that much help from the film. Instead just focus on the fart jokes and . you’ll be OK.

The whole cast follow the Monty Python playbook closely so that their amiable performances are of the exceptionally dim and hammy. Best in show is Rupert Graves (A ROOM WITH A VIEW) as a Roman war monger who delivers confusing troop rallying cries.

5 OUT OF 10 – It’s a fun diversion but don’t go in cynical. Dafter and madder than anything else you’ll have seen this year.
