    A funny and quirky movie, very light hearted and super silly. What better way to spend a rainy day!

    Hughie said it... lots of fun! This is not some indie film that is determined to be bleak. This is unadulterated happy stuff. You will turn off the TV smiling, unless you are craving something cerebral.

    In the warm, sparkling character comedy Danny Deckchair, the Welsh actor (Rhys Ifans) moves to center stage, but it has taken a trip to Australia to get him there.

    Thanks to amiable lead performances from Miranda Otto and Rhys Ifans, this not very original Aussie comedy about a man making a fresh start in life is a pleasant enough time-waster.

    Weird, frivolous, and impossible to dislike.
