With almost no lasting buzz and soft box office, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.
Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- Right up the alley of people who love a good family story and people who need a good giggle. Anyone with siblings or parents will recognize something here. Very British, in all the best ways.
- The mood
- Light and funny.
- The pace
- Breezy, at 1 hr 20 min. Short enough for a weeknight.
- What might put you off

- Not the pick if you want something heavy or meaningful.
A Cockney family inherit a ramshackle Devon farm. The rest of the family don't want to leave London but the father insists and off they go, to face the unknown.
