Before you even consider going to see Large, be forewarned: it's aimed squarely at 14-year-old boys with a love of gross-out comedy, zany behaviour and slapstick.

Even when they were pouring the bodily fluids, Pie and Mary had solid characters at their core. Large simply falls back on gurning and overplaying, while the Midlands setting does little to help. As for the drugged-up dog, which has an inexplicable amount of screen time... We've seen it done better before.
