Horrible Histories: The Movie - Rotten Romans Reviews

The film’s sense of humour is hardly subtle – there’s a mountain of potty humour and nods to contemporary devices like iPhones – but I’d be lying if I said it didn’t tickle my funny bone at times.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jul 14, 2024

…Horrible Histories is a breath of fresh air, a Carry On film with non-sexual gags, and plenty of energy in the telling…

| Original Score: 3/5 | May 8, 2023

If you like jokes about Roman numerals - and I do - you're in for a treat.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Aug 16, 2020

The tunes aren't particularly catchy, the outfits aren't that over the top, and the fart jokes, well, stink.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jun 27, 2020

The gag quotient is high, even if the hit-rate is middling.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Apr 15, 2020

Horrible Histories never escapes the sense of feeling more like a feature-length 온라인카지노추천 special than a movie.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Aug 13, 2019

It might distract young kids handily enough, but for your own sanity, just introduce them to Monty Python instead.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Aug 7, 2019

As light and silly as Horrible Histories can be, there's a subversive quality to it, too.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Aug 4, 2019

Writers Jessica Swale, Giles Pilbrow and Caroline Norris keep up a relentless gag rate and the performers rise to it admirably.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Jul 29, 2019

The film lacks the punchy hit rate of gung-ho gross-out that made the series such a deliciously uncouth pleasure.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jul 29, 2019

With Craig Roberts and Kim Cattrall catching the eye as Nero and Agrippina, it's a solid IV stars from me.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Jul 29, 2019

An adequate showcase, then, for a new batch of jokes in the usual style.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jul 29, 2019

It's broad stuff, but thoroughly winning.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jul 27, 2019

It is contrived - no longer based around real, erm, history - and less horrible; most of the deaths happen off-camera, presumably to secure a PG rating.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jul 27, 2019

Terry Deary's kids' history books, and their spin-off sketch show, are given cinematic life in this entertaining and comedic yarn.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jul 27, 2019

The only question was whether Horrible Histories: The Movie - Rotten Romans, would seem like more than a 온라인카지노추천 episode stretched well beyond its natural length. It doesn't.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jul 27, 2019

Padded out with embarrassing hip-hop inspired musical numbers, it's the sort of cringe-worthy British kids' films that will have its target audience running back to comfort of Pixar and Marvel.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jul 26, 2019

Its writing is clever, the songs are well-crafted and memorable and the cast really get stuck in. Which is why this bigger version feels a little... iffy.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jul 26, 2019

There's a fair bit of fun to be had in this...

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jul 26, 2019

There's an infectious sense of fun and some very good jokes at the expense of pompous Romans and maggoty Celts.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jul 26, 2019
