Product Reviews
A Ricky Gervais film worth watching
I love Ricky Gervais, he's hilarious and talented, but, let's face it, the movies he's been in, The Invention Of Lying, Ghost Town, Night At The Museum 2, are not movies that I could give any four or even 3 star rating to.
Cemetery Junction is different. Written by Gervais and Merchant and filmed in the UK, Gervais stars in the movie but takes a back seat to the main characters who act out this coming of age tale well. This film is not a laugh a minute gag-fest, rather a well written, flowing story set that is filled with humourous references and well placed humourous asides. Even though Gervais is not the star, his relationship with his live-in mother-in-law is hilarious and suits Gervais down to the ground. Credit to him for not trying to completely steal the limelight in this movie.
