“Fishermans Friends”
A group of music executives from London get stranded in a tiny Cornish fishing port when their holiday yacht fails to arrive. While making the most of their unplanned holiday, they stumble upon a traditional sailor's shanty session being sung outside the local pub. One of the team gets left behind to try to sign up the singing fishermen to a music contract.
“FISHERMAN'S FRIENDS” has a lot of charm. We're in POLDARK territory, so the scenery is a guaranteed hit, and the fishermen are a likeable (mixed) bunch. All in all, there's a healthy dollop of the feel-good factor that made THE FULL MONTY and the MARIGOLD HOTEL movies such crowd-pleasers.
I really enjoyed this movie, based on a true story of a group of Cornish singing fishermen who made it big in the charts against all odds. This quintessentially British themed movie delivers the goods. This film of underdog makes good is based on real events. It's a gentle drama punctuated with some great songs. The comedy elements are well done while the romance perhaps feels a bit of an afterthought. if you're a fan of sea shanties you will love it.
Entry s 12 dollars per head.
