The Leicester Mercury has given the “Grimsby” movie such a negative review that it’s hilarious

The film reviewer in Leicester Mercury is not mincing their words, whilst bringing us a class-based critique of Sacha Baron Cohen’s latest bit of light entertainment:

GRIMSBY (15) *
In which the privately-schooled, Oxbridge-educated multimillionaire Sacha Baron Cohen invites us to laugh at his latest creation: a bloke with no job and 11 kids

And it’s not the only negative review, there’s also their take on Peanuts

SNOOPY AND CHARLIE BROWN: THE PEANUTS MOVIE(U) ***
Existential drama. A neurotic balding boy with one jumper and a hallucinating dog is repeatedly thwarted in his attempts to kick a ball by an unlicensed psychiatrist.

And the apathy brought to this review of Star Wars is fantastic

STAR WARS EPISODE VII: THE FORCE AWAKENS
Space, and so on.

So three cheers for the Leicester Mercury! Mark Kermode should invite them onto his radio show
