Really enjoyed this - interesting, funny follow up to The Thick of It. Weird seeing Capaldi & Gandolfini in same scenes!
Not Ianunucci's best but still very good political satire. 7/10
Such a fun watch, everything compounds to become complicated and it’s a blast to watch everything unravel
I didn't know what to expect and ended up laughing a lot. Bloody good time.
Despite being a spin off from a previous series, this film stands on its own as a hilarious comedy about the inner workings of BritishGov.
Not much of a plot but just insults and jokes back and forth
Fantastic conclusion to a classic British sitcom. Malcom Tucker is hilarious as usual!
The thick of it and Veep collide to make a hilarious movie
Political satire that feels far too accurate at times.
Hilarious political satire by the creators of The Thick of It and Veep. Not for those who dislike foul language.
