Keith Lemon : The Film (2012) 4/10

Starring : Leigh Francis, Verne Troyer, Kevin Bishop, Laura Aikman, David Hasselhoff, Conleth Hill, Nina Wadia, Harish Patel, Kelly Brook
Director : Paul Angunawela
Running Time : 82 mins

When Keith Lemon (Francis) travels to London to try and promote his new security product, no one is interested, but there he meets fellow entrepreneur Kushvinder (Patel) offers him his invention – a buttonless cell phone – he becomes an overnight millionaire, turning his back on his girlfriend Rosie (Aikman) in favour of model Kelly Brook.

This is to Celebrity Juice what Guest House Paradiso was to Bottom. Fans of Celebrity Juice and Bo Selecta might enjoy some parts of this movie, but the humour is so juvenile there is barely a chucklesome moment in the whole film, which feels decidedly longer than its measly 82 minutes. The acting is terrible, the plot is weak, and the jokes basically revolve around sex, cocks, arses and fannies. Steer clear if you are not familiar with the works of Leigh Francis, and probably avoid if you like him because this will ruin his comedy for you.
