The Full Monty 1997 - 3 1/2 stars out of 5 stars


Actors Tom Wilkinson and Robert Carlyle  lend respectability and a sort of curiosity  to get one to check out this odd 1997 film that runs 91 minutes.Its not as good as "The Commitments",a film reviewed on this blog,but its cut from that same jib.There is no total frontal nudity for you the viewer to see because of the camera angle when we do finally see"The Full Monty"which is that nudity,but the characters in the film DO display it to their fans.Its for adults but not a "skin flick"rather a gritty humorous attempt to display the ingenuity desperate men will go to for a few honest bucks.I took the 1 and 1/2 stars off because of the overt adult theme and well it is sort of the commitments stripping,still I did laugh and recommend for a serious adult comedy night.Trailer URL follows the picture and a IMDB summary below.

 Six unemployed steel workers form a male striptease act. The women cheer them on to go for "the full monty" - total nudity.
