Sightseers reviewed by Mark Kermode 

the caravan debate was gold

Mayo’s doing a joke! Mayo’s doing a joke! Everybody be quiet because MAYO’S DOING A JOKE.

The show is called Kermode and Mayo's Film Review. Simon will always be on the videos. He is the presenter. They do the show together.

God, I love it when Simon baits Mark. They are my favorite comedy duo. The film reviews aren’t bad either.

Been binge watching these old reviews and still loving them. Saw this film a couple of years ago and remember loving it but had forgotten the title.

"...they DO sell my pasta sauce." Love it.

Superb film. Closing moments genuinely shocking.

lol Simon loves winding Mark up with silly comments.

This is an excellent film. Steve Oram is a much under used and underrated actor x

Simon Mayo is the host of this radio show.

Saw Sightseers as part of this year's Leeds Film Festival an absolutely loved it. Steve Oram was in attendance for a Q&A and he seemed very similar to the character he portrayed. I found the film to be a cross between Withnail & I and Natural Born Killers with a touch of The Wicker Man. Brilliant, can't wait to see what Wheatley directs next.

Went to see it last night in Workington and belly-laughed through it. Yes, it's a slow burn and the tension in the scenes at the house is almost unbearable. I'm in W Cumbria and I do think this film is perhaps viewed more sympathetically by those in the north. Our cinema only had a handful of folk in the audience (shame) but my partner and I weren't the only ones laughing & gasping & recoiling at the violence. I was crying towards the end - I didn't realise how much I cared for the characters.

Needed more caravan chat.

The film’s well acted, well characterised, well directed, well written, stylish, dark & A very funny dark comedy film. (81%) (4/5 stars) (positive)

I taught this film...i think it's a masterpiece

Best British film I've seen since Kill List

I also saw this great little film in Workington. Very funny, very dark and very English. From the poster alone you would never guess the levels of violence contained, but it is very funny all the same. With the right amount of word of mouth, this little gem could become a cult film in the same vein as Withnail and I.

Alan Clarke from the Mexico 70 England team deserves a mention .

Mayoooo. Mayooooo. He works till Lunchtime so we're off to rob his house!!

Well at least Kermode watched it! Actually Sightseers is better for the second watch, the interplay between the characters is just hilarious. They make the mundane funny, like the dingley dell scene from above. I could have quite happily watched Chris being an anorak curmudgeon for the duration without any murder scenes at all. I'd have even taken the murders as brutal imaginings. It's difficult to enjoy watching an innocent get bludgeoned. But if you just go with it, it is funny. I suppose if you remove that element, you would get something akin to 'nuts in may', but hey, you can't have too many films like that! Kermode is right, it's a difficult line to tread. And the pairing here between both actors and director works and makes something quite special. I loved kill list, but it went totally off-piste for me towards the end! This is genuinely funny. But you'll probably only get it, if you've witnessed a few dad moments and survived - this is how you do a caravan hook up...

I'll have to look for that one! I've been visiting the UK & Scotland sometimes, for word even, from the US & France since '80 & Brits (not Scots!) tend to get touchy when I mention how insane it seems to me! I'm sure I could live there which is why I haven't. I'm an American weirdo & would have a field day there, so best just to visit, ah ha ha ha! This one flopped in Paris so we were lucky to catch it. My French spouse found plenty to enjoy in it -- he's way younger than I. Good comment!

I've been to see this. Found it very funny. There's a bit more to it than just humour though.

Didn't do well in Paris, France so we had to rush to see it, but I loved it & I think my spouse did, too. I'm American, he's French, & all my Brit friends have turned out to be loonies & worse over the decades but so pleasant! Oddly, this movie is likely to promote tourism in Britain! Cute & romantic, I think many could enjoy this even though it's quite horrible! Good review and I did like the movie a lot. I got very sick after seeing it so dreamed of it for nearly 2 days! ugh

I watched last night, really good !

GREAT COMMENT! People even just starting dating ought to start with THIS!

If they do this sort of thing regularly I dunno if it'd work for me, but in connection with this movie it kind of fit right in.

Hey, you've included actual clips instead of just the sound track. Well done.

this film is a million times better than any other british film i love the actress who plays tina's mother another deeply strange film is one way pendulum

Iv got a caravan and id definitely prefer Dingly dell to by the bogs ,😅

We were nearly alone to see this outside Paris where it flopped but some people came in and they were dead quiet throughout. I was the only one laughing! No wonder it seems to have flopped here. I don't think most French would know what to make of THIS, especially if they've never even visited the UK!

The caravan argument was funny but I wonder if they did it on purpose for comedy.

Does this even qualify as a review? Mark rambled about bits and pieces for ages without getting to any point and mentioned Nuts in May more often. My review: Sightseers is brilliant, go and see it.

I love Sightseers. Great film I thought.

Movie review ...or caravan review

Mr. Kermode, It's very disconcerting to see you on the right hand side of the studio. I'll have to watch the rest of this on the reflection in my mirror. Lookward to this...loved Kill List.

Is it me or does MAYO become bloody annoying after watching a couple of these videos?

I saw it last night too. The gore was so awkward. Most was comical, but once it was really hardcore. I loved it though. Good film for a first date.

Can't wait for the Miss Potter double bill!

"Report THAT to the National Trust mate..."

It's a great film but Kemode and Mayo are the better double act. Mike Leigh never could have dreamt them up.

new studio!

Loved it

... what happens if I turn that red switch?

This sounds so good but worried how scary it is. I don't do horror! Any other troubled sleepers who can advise?

There's nothing you like more than a movie that upsets.....What? I did not understand what Mark said at the beginning of this. What was the missing word he mumbled?

Not Allen Clarke from Leeds Utd then

soooo.....was it a static caravan?

Nuts in may is Mike Leighs best work. I'd have to go with Vera Drake sorry.

LOL... Thought i was the only one who remembered that.

Simon's right.

its a great film. its so black some of the comedy does not touch base. even so, its essential viewing and has the vibe of a British cult film somehow

Could it be a loud comment?

rude not crediting the label

Why we hate camode

I have yet to a see a Ben Wheatley film I like. This was no exception.

Holy crap Mark! Caravans that don't move... In North America they're called Trailer Parks. Sound familiar now?

that was hilarious.

we can talk again :D

Warm nuts, sir?

ginger FACED man

Went to see this today. Staggeringly unfunny- I smiled once. The rest of the audience were silent throughout. Not funny, not scarey, not exciting. I felt robbed

This looks good for the most part i find Ben Wheatley to be a boring filmmaker

Simon mayo comes across as someone who is not interested in the movie. If you're going to try and troll the interviewee at least try and be funny.

I love the film, but it is no comedy at all. It is a drama and arthouse.

so whats your point?

I thought it was a rip off of Natural Born Killers, although that was good. This wasn't. Why The Wicker Man? Nothing like it, apart from the hippies in the field.

mayo trying to be funny and failing. please dont put simon mayo on youtube anymore.
