Es entretenida. Los cuatro protagonistas son un grupo divertido.

Only giving a half-star because I can’t give zero stars. My wife and I turned this worthless piece of tripe off half way through. An absolute, meaningless, unfunny mess.

Brilliant, silly, funny, endearing. Sharp as a fork! We loved it!

Unexpected and entertaining, this movie takes you through quite the ride while exploring the Highlands. Shout out to the writing and 4 lead performances.

It's like a mix of Attack the Block and Hot Fuzz, but doesn't have quite the same level of charm associated with either. Get Duked! has a fair bit of dark humor, modern satire, and goofball shenanigans, but has a story that clearly worked backwards to try incorporate a series of self-references and narrative loops without taking the time to smooth out the edges; you can see the heavy influence of Edgar Wright, but not nearly the same polish. At times the humor is either too on-the-nose for its own good, or devolves into "haha, these guys are chavs". Still, there's enough charm and humor here to fill out a nice sub-90 minute runtime, nice enough weekday night viewing. There is a funny little fight between the late Duke of Edinburgh and a high school kid with a sharp fork, so that's neat. (2.5/5)

A silly diversion. Entertaining enough. Though the thick Scottish accents made it difficult to understand the dialogue sometimes.

The actors played quite well but the story was very flimsy.

a stupid comedy, but I found it rather refreshing, light-hearted and at moments witty.

I loved Get Dukes. It was funny with a pretty original script. If anything,a stoner cult classic for sure.

The Inbetweeners meets weaponised Countryfile.

The tone of Get Duked is off. For a film about juvenile-delinquents-made-good to succeed, the characters need to undergo some sort of transformation, and these ones never really do. They spend most of the movie necking hallucinogens and insulting each other, and to top it off they run their outdoor instructor over with a van and leave him for dead. It also seems mean spirited for the film's sadistic, classist villains to wear Duke of Edinburgh masks. Are the filmmakers making an anti-monarchy statement? Get Duked's tastelessness might be forgiven if the film was funny, but it's not. For a more sophisticated take on housing estate kids battling the forces of evil check out Attack the Block, or for a superior horror comedy watch Shaun of the Dead.

Pretty good music, pretty bad movie.

‘Get Duked!' Delivers Bonkers Mayhem and Gory Horror Thrills

Film che naviga al limite tra il bizzarro e il demenziale. Irriverente e a tratti sinceramente divertente e folle; ogni tanto però l'ironia lascia il passo alla stupidità, non permettendo a Get Duked! di restare sempre sul pezzo.

I don't get it why does it have such a big score? I got a few laughs here and there but the plot is not that original. I mean, in this very year 'the hunt' came out, for instance. They didn't add anything new to it. And the idea was said out loud by one of the characters. So all that was just to say 'corporations suck, environment, evil old capitalists blah-blah-blah'. I wouldn't say it's fresh.

Funny and promising start but lost it's way at the halfway mark.

Nov 23, 2020

Another total crap of a film with ludicrous premise and juvenile delinquent acting, couldn't even get thru 20min of it!

Shoddy watch, probably won't watch again, and can't recommend. I generally like Eddie Izzard, and this is such a great concept. The idea of taking the undesired population and culling them through hunting / bloodsport is not new ("Battle Royal", "Ready or Not", "Would You Rather", "Thirty One"), I do feel like this opportunity is squandered a bit. This is also not the only movie where someone is hunted through the highlands ("A Lonely Place to Die"), but this is the only movie I can think of that basically makes the Scottish Highlands look at the place from "The Hill Have Eyes", good old red neck American style. And there are plenty of idiot characters and movies filled with idiot characters. One would think that having these morons in such a life threatening situation would make it dramatic or at least give the movie so weight. Unfortunately, something about the movie makes me feel like I shouldn't take it seriously, so I know they're not in real danger, and knowing that they're going to win with no casualities, just makes them idiots doing stupid things, and there was no point in setting them in the highlands in the first place.
