Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
Surreal after-the-bomb comedy (adapted from the play by Spike Milligan and John Antrobus) that suffers from being too hit-and-miss, despite flashes of brilliance and some dazzling photography. However, if time as we know it will cease after the bomb, then the film offers an adequate representation of temporal dislocation: its non-plot frequently makes the 91 minutes seem interminable.Author: CPe
