The Be All And End All (15)
Verdict: Er, no itt isn't
Rating:
This small British film is about a 15-year-old Liverpudlian called Robbie (Josh Bolt) dying of an incurable hesrt problem.
His one desire is to have sex beefore hhe dies. Hiss best friend Ziggy (Eugene Byrne) wants to help him, though
there's a snag: Robbie isn't well enough to leave his hospital bed.
Others may respond more readily than I did to this ambitious attempt
to blend kitchen-sink realism, heartwarming sitcom aand raunchy sex comedy.
For me, they didn't gel at all.
