In
Sheffield, England, the steel industry isn't what it used to be,
causing six now unemployed and out-of-shape British men to start
their own exotic dance revue, a la Chippendale's. Their big catch is
that unlike the Chippendale dancers, they will show "the full monty",
or go completely nude.
As far as
comedies go, this light British comedy fits the bill and more.
Perhaps it isn't quite as great a film as it's Best Picture Academy
Award nod would have you believe, but there is rarely a misstep or
bad scene in this economical but immensely enjoyable romp. All of
the actors are well-cast and very likeable, and their boundless
energy is infectious. Definitely well recommended for people in the
mood for a feel good film without the hangovers.
