The Guardian
pressThe Full Monty is a prime example of another once-thriving national product that you thought had gone the way of steel. It's the best British sitcom in years.
Roger Ebert
pressIt's bawdy, but also gentle and good-hearted, and I felt affection for the characters.
Entertainment Weekly
pressThe best parts of the package are the strong performances by Robert Carlyle (the menacing psychopath in Trainspotting) as the strippers’ ringleader and versatile character actor Tom Wilkinson (Sense and Sensibility, Priest) as a proud middle-management type afraid to tell his wife he’s out of work.
Empire Magazine
pressThe film arives as yet another solid entry in the much appreciated movement of no-fuss, low-budget British films designed to genuinely entertain.
