I think Rob's right on the money – this show was very obvious and predictable. I predicted it was going to happen several weeks before it started. He's honest about what he wanted – sweaty, bouncing boobs. I'm glad at least one reviewer had the courage to say that, even if they are a cunt. Like Simon I also didn't actually see this play but I imagined what it was like and agree the first two reviews do NOT match up to how I imagined the play to actually be.

Yeah, credit where it's fair enough due, Rob's review is cogent and incisive. I think he penetrates to the main problems of the play (If you can call it that lol!) and discusses them in a balanced manner. The fact that's he's a cunt shouldn't come into it.

Of all the reviews, the fairest and best-written one is Rob's. He hasn't just criticised the shit out of the play, merely given his opinions and backed them up, rather than completely licking arse like the other two vapid reviewers. Not that I've actually seen the play but it's nice to read a review that's actually an interesting read and not just a list of superlatives…

Long live Rob.
Although, from past experience he can be a bit of a cunt sometimes…

Although I have to say that while I think rob's review is fair, the random deviation into sweat-drenched mammaries is odd to say the least.

I'm sorry Jason but that's complete poo. You cannot parody something slightly irritating and repetitive by being irritating and slightly repetetive. It has to be funny, there have to be jokes ABOUT the problems in these films. Otherwise it's not a parody, it's just a bad action film. It's shocking that the main point about parodies has been lost on Jason.

I think short and snappy goes hand in hand with irritating and repetetive. The reviewer got the irony, it just wasn't imaginitive enough for him. It's a pretty fair review really. You need to leave off this Rob guy! His review was the best one!
