  1. As a whole it's vibrant, witty and richly detailed.

    The cast is uniformly excellent -- Pryce in simultaneously utterly horrible and a real hoot as the wildly egomaniacal paterfamilias -- but the film itself is merely mildly charming.
  3. Pryce is very good, but Very Annie Mary is a bit too eager to please.
  4. Having mined England and Ireland dry, filmmakers are now turning to Wales for their quirkiness quota.
