Bill

The comic minds behind "Horrible Histories" have made the jump to the big screen, and the result is a delightfully wacky comedy with Monty Pythonesque humour and surprising charm. The jokes keep on coming, and while a couple of them fall a bit flat, the majority of them produce big laughs. The cast were great, particularly Simon Farmaby and Matthew Baynton. Damien Llewis' cameo was also pretty funny. Just so you know, there are more innuendos than in "Horrible Histories" (including one brief reference to prostitution) but most of them will go over kids' heads. In short, "Bill" is a very enjoyable comedy recommended for fans of British comedy. I hope this team of comedians make more films in the future. 8/10.

This film is a sweet, trifling British comedy that pokes fun at William Shakespeare's accidental entanglements with a murderous King Philip of Spain. The cast is noteworthy because five of the actors played about five different characters each. Relaxing and fun.
