This was a nicely shot confession of a man's inability to stop dancing like a retard any time they hear a bell due to a misshap at a stag do. The events are well chronicled and there are some good laughs to be had. In particular the priest gives some good response that make him seem just one of the lads eg, responding that he too loves go karting. The mischievous grin he holds only reveals its true value once the film reaches its apex, of course. Well acted but too much talking for a dance film, I would have liked to have seen at least a 50% balance in favour of the genre but that's just me.

This film centered on a man confessing to his priest. His problem is unique in that everytime he hears a bell he breaks out into a strange dance pose. Which makes for some hillarious scenes. One in paticular being his visit to the local dairy where he tries to avoid setting off the bell and fails. The acting by both actors was proffesional and naturalistic. The lead was very believable as a bloke and would not be out of place on a show like "Outrageous Fortune". Production wise this film was slick with good sound levels and a good use of camera angles. In paticular when both the characters are facing forward, not looking at each other but more towards the camera. So that the audience are privy to some expressions that the other isn't. I disagree with the above poster and liked how this film was character focused and not action focused. This film was perhaps the best example of script writing in this heat. Although a little more dancing would of been apreciated. Instead of mere seconds each time maybe 15 seconds of dance?

Superly done! I thoroughly enjoyed this film as it really had the sense of realism that some other films let down in. I rather regard this film as one of the best at the heats. The climax was also rather delightful, though I did see it coming.

A well put together movie, good setup for fitting the dancing into the story - rather than the common tactic of just having the characters break into song or dance for no reason. Use of the leaf to imply the preist was Satan seemed a tacked-on effort, but overall one of the better films in its heat.

Great movie! The cinematography and acting amongst the peus was really well done. The leaf at the end did seem a little forced though and perhaps unnecessary. I thoroughly enjoyed the performance but perhaps a bit more dance or music as that was the genre; however a very clever way around it also.

flick about man's compulsive dancing upon ring'a'bell too much heavy dialogue oriented for a musical/dance flick.. and the sound/picture kept changing between the two head shots that distracted from heavy dialogue technically... not just my type of flick.. cross fades could have helped.. it was a shame as the sound seemed to be captured OK but fades missing.. I did get some good laughs from some of the awesome dance moves!
