Warning: Spoilers
I saw the DVD cover for this film, based on the crude comic strip in Viz, I thought it was some sort of porn film or something, but it was just an excuse for gross-out humour, from director Ed Bye (Kevin & Perry Go Large). Basically vulgar and crass, booze swilling, kebab scoffing, over-weight nymphomaniacs Sandra (Smack the Pony's Fiona Allen) and Tracey (Sophie Thompson), living on S*** Street, Fulchester, north England are your typical fat women with no chance at making something of themselves. That is until American billionaire Sean Cooley (Scream 2's Jerry O'Connell) gets a blow to the head, gaining a new insane personality, finding the two fat slags the most beautiful women on Earth, seeing them on a daytime TV chat show. He is determined to make stars of them, and forces fashion designer Fidor Konstantin (Notting Hill's James Dreyfus) to put them on stage to model, which only works when they get their knockers out. Soon Sandra and Tracey are taking over the UK with a number one record, winning the Turner Prize, and making fat the new black, always maintaining their vulgarity, innocence and stupidity. But wanting attention from Sean, growing jealousy is drawing the two women apart, until of course he suffers the blow to the head getting him back to normal, and ending their success. They do however find a way to steal all the money he made from their fame, and make him out to be a criminal, before he is knocked again, and they return to near regular lives, being vulgar. Also starring Anthony Head as Victor, Geri Halliwell as Paige, Naomi Campbell as Sales Assistant, Angus Deayton as Maurice the hotel receptionist, Steve Punt as Immigration 1, Mock the Week's Hugh Dennis as Immigration 2, Les Dennis as MC, Spoons' Tom Goodman-Hill as Baz, EastEnders' Michael Greco as Niarchos, Burt Kwouk as Dalai Lama, Eamonn Holmes, Dolph Lundgren as Randy, Henry Miller as Dave, Ralf Little as Milkman, John Thomson as Foreman, Sarah Cawood as TOTP presenter, Colin Murray as TOTP presenter, Coronation Street's Alison King as Receptionist and David Schneider as Tanner. It might be a very British film, it may have a very good variety of British talent in the cast, but it isn't the sort of thing that makes you proud to be British, you'd probably emigrate. I don't want to see a film with extremely fat women getting their tits out, farting and burping a lot, squirting bodily fluids, or shagging people, it just made me feel awful, and it is certainly one of the worst films ever made in Britain. Very poor!
