Enjoyable film, with fabulous Cornish scenery.
Perfect entertainment to enjoy a comedy / romance /drama, without violence or bad language.
Sometimes things do not have to be action packed and dark.
I think it helps if you come from The West Country, to share the humour.
This is a really lovely cheerful film, full of fun, pleasant music, and beautiful scenery very uplifting in these hard times.
Highly recommended especially if you need cheering up. Even better than the first film and that was wonderful.
An unnecessary sequel to the 2019 film that was a delightful comedy about the discovery of the Cornish singing troupe. That film said it all so this latest one dithers around looking for an actual story to tell. In short the singers, a year on from their success, are struggling with the fame and their involvement in the modern world. This is all epitomised in their leader Jim (James Purefoy), who is drinking a bit too much and is constantly grumpy. This rattles along going nowhere for awhile as their record company ditches them and they strive to play at Glastonbury. Thematically the film does that common thing in British comedy that deals in it's regional differences by having the characters struggle with modern concepts such as failing to grasp why women might not like to be called darling or pet. There's an actually uncomfortable scene where one of the group attempts to insultingly chat up a journalist, a scene that is played for comedy but just isn't at all funny. The main problem is that the comedy is very forced and unoriginal and ultimately fails. There's a bit of the usual romance, a brief bit of pointless tension involving an old tin mine and some glorious sea shanties and it all ends entirely predictably. If you liked the first one then check this out but don't expect ct too much.
