Brilliant I had bought this off HMV and after reading so many reviews I was expecting an awful movie but to my surprise it is brilliant. Eddie Izzard is fantastic in this movie. His relationship with Franz is brilliant you can sort of feel a connection. Matt LeBlanc is not too bad in this movie but I believe he could of done a much better job. David Birkin is fantastic. He really suited his character and portrayed him extremely well. Most of the reviews are comparing this movie to "Privates on parade" which is stupid. Privates on parade is an awful movie. I watch it as John Clesse was in it but he hardly said anything. This movie is nothing like Privates on Parade this movie is fantastic. I would recommend this movie to anyone who is an Eddie Izzard fan. His character in this movie is brilliant.

Longford has to be one of the best British drama/films i have seen in a long time. With famous faces such as Jim Broadbent, Andy Serkis and Samantha Morton. Everything about this piece was fantastic, Jim Broadbent was perfect as Lord Longford he hit the nail on the head not only did he look like Longford but he was just spot on, his acting talents for this piece were praised when he won a BAFTA for best actor. Anyway Andy Serkis delivered a perfect performance as Ian Brady even though he had to portray a most evil and sinister character he pulled it off perfectly, in my opinion he stole the show. And Samantha Morton was fantastic as Myra Hindley she made you feel some what sorry for her character at points but then Andy reminded us she was an extremely evil person. I would recommend this to anyone but mainly to people who were around when this happened. I give it 10 stars as it was FANTASTIC
