I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

I had a fantastic evening watching this film at the Warwickshire screening. The serious subject matter was enveloped by a fabulously witty script. Emotional and comedic performances were given throughout. Well worth watching. We're looking forward to it coming out on DVD. Excellent film, I sincerely hope it gets men to self-check for testicular cancer. The message should've been received - loud and clear.

This lighthearted comedy about cancer had me laughing one minute and crying the next! It shows the true impact this disease can have on someone, along with their family and friends. Its' clear message about the importance of checking yourself and what to do next is a real eye opener and is portrayed with such dignity and respect to the writers true fight. While doing all this, it was so funny at the exact right moments. The leading lady was just incredible, along with all other cast and crew who made this true story a film where you are willing the lead, 'Jack', to get through it from the very beginning! A very professional and well made film. Definitely worth a watch. 10/10.

An educational and entertaining piece on a taboo subject, one that needs to be spoken more by men. The humour is tasteful and well timed to keep the audience's attention inbetween the educational parts. I for one will check myself in the future which I guess is the entire films purpose.

This is a really well made and well acted film about a serious subject (Testicular Cancer).The film treats the subject with humour, sadness, and seriousness in equal measures.It is a film that keeps the viewer interested and amused throughout but at the same time bringing home the message of the importance of self examination, follow up treatment, and the emotional aspects of all concerned when dealing with Testicular Cancer.Highly Recommended.
