I wonder how many people will see this. My guess is that Magic Mike will. ;)

Absolutely Fabulous: The Movie is indefinitely unamazing. Naturally, it's a movie only for fans of the TV series, and the shoutouts and callbacks are fun. The real weakness is the script, which could have used another heaping helping of funny. At least the second half is better than the first, which lets you leave the theatre on a high note. Bond girl, Joanna Lumley still looks great at 70. Plus, there was an unexpected cameo in the pool near the end that was a real treat for those who never believed they'd see them on screen again! *B* (Strictly for fans only, anyone else interested should absolutely avoid starting here, go back to the fabulous series)

I never found it even remotely funny. I won't watch it.

Absolutely bad. Which is a shame as I liked the TV show.
