Editorial Review:
Amazon.com essential video:
A group of unemployed Yorkshire steelworkers hopes to replenish their empty wallets and boost their flagging morale by following in the footsteps of the Chippendale's strippers. These guys are hardly what you would think of as buff, and few can even dance. They simply take these problems in stride, because these are men with a plan--displaced, unemployed, and feeling suffocated by the women in their lives, they just want to earn a little respect. The dialogue and interaction between these men will have you screeching with laughter, but of equal importance is their sense of camaraderie and caring. First-time director Peter Cattaneo is a name to watch for; he easily conveys the sheer humanity of these people in their small town with their sad stories and irresistible sense of optimism. --Rochelle O'Gorman

Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Fully exposéd
Please note that this is for the two-disc "Fully Exposed" edition:
If you're reading this you're probably already a fan or at least have read other reviews telling you how great the movie is, so I won't clutter the place with more of the same.
But it has to be said that after ten years of being stuck with a DVD that counts "Interactive Menus" as a special feature, I'm beside myself that there's finally some REAL special features to be had.
We get to see some ... Read More
Rating: - Full Monte
This movie is hysterical!! Once you get by the British language, it is very funny.
Rating:  - the full monty
It was a good movie but I was hopeing it was more than what was in the movie. the credits was ok on the second disk
Rating: - The Full Monty Really Reveals
Though I've seen this film at least twice, I've wanted to have it as part of my personal film library for some time. The Full Monty reveals just how excellent the British are at making movies that are entertaining and informed with sensibilities that touch the human heart. This one makes you 'LOL" while touching on the reality of the changing economic forces that put many people in the position of having to go in directions never fathomed in order to survive. Every single frame gets 5 stars from me!!!
Rating: - Top 10 All Time Comedies
I would rank The Full Monty as one of the Top 10 All Time Comedies. It doesn't get funnier than this movie. It is a hilarious, intelligent, emotional, character-driven film. 5 Stars - 10 for 10 - A+
