Its D'pits..........

So the titular character owes €3.8 million in taxes, and has to pay it or her livelihood will be taken away.

That's the story. Other sub lots involve the Russian Mafia, Racism. Blind Ninjas, Sexism, breaking the fourth wall on several occasions, and then pretending to do an outtake halfway through the film, because hey, a lot of the people who watch this abomination on TV wouldn't know what good comedy was even if they were visited by The Spanish Inquisition....

And truth be told, its terrible, from beginning to end, its cringeworthy stuff, and as soon as the titular character turns over and broke wind at the beginning, just confirmed the shameful, lazy writing that this thing has.

The breaking of the fourth wall is awful, but the worse thing that this film has, are the silly out takes that we get 'treated to' in the second act, its clear that they are staged.

All in all, yes, it's made a shedload of money, but that doesn't mean that many people liked it.

Come the end of the film, I saw Keith Duffy, and realised I wasn't actually watching the film, I was just looking at the screen, bored senseless.

Do not treat your 'mammy' to this, this Christmas, as all the advertising will no doubt say.

A poisonous cash in, stopping people seeing something decent at the cinema.
