Arthur's Dyke (2001) Reviews
Great Movie
A road trip with a difference. This film superbly charts the lives of 3 students who meet again after 20 years to conquer a long distance walk. Along the way they pick up a middle aged Pauline Quirke, who wants to leave the drudgery of her life and find something to give her a jolt. The cast is cast brilliantly, Robert Daws plays the obnoxious Arthur to great effect, bullying the others along. He tries desperately to relive his younger days, attempting to sleep with any woman that passes his way. This movie will appeal to Uk fans and lovers of great story lines alike. The ending may appear a little strange but works well with the story that had unfolded throughout.
An experienced overview based on personal experience
A fine and classically accurate representation of country hikes in the UK. I have a lot of experience of such walks and consider this movie a definite five star effort. Warren Clarke was superb. I am STILL laughing! It made me feel quite homesick. I was surprised at the negative comments in one of the other reviews, obviously written by someone who has never gone past the end of the street!
Despite the negative comments, I liked it.
It seems odd to see so many negative comments about this film - Maybe the people who watched it were expecting something more like "Cliffhanger". This is one of those quirky films that the British do very well - It's not hugely about anything, though in some ways it's a "coming of age" movie for people who have already come of age. I have nothing else to add about the plot, that has been covered in other reviews but if you want to watch a nice film that is very British and possibly requires quite a subtle sense of humour at times to appreciate (though other times, not so subtle; we still stereotype Swedes better than they do!).
Meandering but has it's moments
Nice lightweight late night BBC film with a lot of familiar UK television faces such as the ever reliable Robert Daws . Could have done with more of Brian Conley as Pauline Quirke's unfaithful husband . His insensitive oafs are always a laugh . Check him out as Doug Digby , the bullying PE teacher in The Grimleys , an overlooked UK comedy of a few years back . The scenery is , of course marvelous . Could be a tourist ad for Wales. Arthur's (or Offa's ) Dyke is spectacular . Two highpoints , for the " lads " are the almost Carry On scenes with Ellie Beaven and Rebecca Lacey . Gratuitous but fun . Worth seeing .
Quaint English comedy
Lovely little film. Makes me want to get out hike like I used to. Something I wished I had done years ago with my old mates. Great performance by Pauline Quirke even though I'm not really a great fan of hers. Dennis Waterman was great to watch as usual Stunning scenery and some very funny moments. I do have to admit the character of Arthur seemed a bit to rude at times but guess that's what makes the unfortunate events he has to endure seem funnier. I thought the story line was very entertaining and would recommend this film. I do wish they had made it to the end as for me it seems a little unfinished. Off out tomorrow to buy the DVD.
