just now (1154+ words) Period drama parody has some decent and often smart gags and benefits from a game cast including Damian Lewis and Thomasin McKenziePerhaps it's the feeling of end times in the air: after years of inactivity, spoofs are making a comeback. This summer saw the resurgence of the lighthearted genre, which at its best sends up the pretensions of overly serious genre with a barrage of pitched cliches, sight gags and stupid-clever puns. The Naked Gun, starring Liam Neeson and Pamela Anderson in a spoof of a buddy-cop spoof, opened to moderate box office success; the hapless rock band dialed it back up to 11 in Spinal Tap II: The End Continues. Reboots of the horror spoof gold-standard Scary Movie and the Mel Brooks Star Wars rip Spaceballs were greenlit, and there were rumors of a return for international man of mystery Austin…...

2+ hour, 28+ min ago (179+ words) Dundee RepThis hazily dramatised show is full of pizzazz and features the voice of Brian Cox but in making Jack as cynical as his mum it loses the story's heart In Stephen Whitson's production, it is done with much pizzazz by a 10-strong cast (plus the giant voice of Brian Cox), but the shift in emphasis is at the expense of the fable's archetypal pull. Gone is any sense of the wonderment of a magical land, of the terror of being a child in an adult world and of the David and Goliath struggle between good and evil. In its place, a hazily dramatised caper about a single-minded cow, marred by the cynicism not only of Jack's mum Sherry (Laura Lovemore), which you would expect, but of Jack himself, which feels all wrong. The story meanders away from its own…...

(2019), a movie that starts out like a Stand By Me-esque coming-of-age comedy and ends up a silly, 420-friendly stoner horror film. There's nothing else quite like it, and you can now experience this quirky comedy thriller for yourself by streaming it on Prime Video.

3+ hour, 33+ min ago (696+ words) The playwright has left us with some of the greatest plays " and gags " in the English language. Along with the silence and second-hand clothes that, as his Guildenstern reminds Rosencrantz, "death is, Sir Tom has left us a shelf of pretty much unequalled intellectual chewiness. As many as 50 plays, each one an intricate dramatic structure, wriggling with ideas and verbal pyrotechnics. It is a bequest beyond price. So to observe that, had Sir Tom only knuckled down, learned the rule of three and clocked up the stage time, he could have made a decent fist of stand-up comedy, might strike some as impudent. Still I make no apologies. If you want to read a conventional tribute from someone who worked with him in theatreland " co-writers, directors and actors " well, there are plenty of such tributes already out there. But stand-up…...
