Two bickering misfits run a rundown seaside guest house beside a nuclear power plant, driving away staff and customers with terrible service and constant chaos.

About

You’ll likely enjoy this if you love loud, crude British slapstick in the spirit of a sitcom blown up to movie length; Not for you if you dislike mean-spirited chaos, gore-free violence, or extended gross-out gags.

Pros: anarchic slapstick energy; cult-favorite rude humor; memorable set-piece gags | Cons: very gross-out finale; repetitive violence; thin, messy plot
