"Gillies MacKinnon’s remake of the classic postwar Ealing comedy is light on laughs and feels out of place in 2016."

The Guardian"...from Izzard's constantly black-affronted army man to Kevin Guthrie's mother hen-pecked schoolteacher and Gregor Fisher's scheming postmaster there's plenty of panto-style characters to stir the emotions."

New Zealand Herald"What makes the film so pleasurable is the humour and lyricism with which it tells its rousing story of whisky-loving small timers coming together together to keep officialdom at bay."
