the audience applauded

This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

Got to be the best laugh on TV since Red Dwarf. This is a refreshingly welcome comedy that had me rolling in stitches I thought I'd split open. With the drivel that is plaguing our screens for last few years, such as My Family or The IT Crowd to name but two, Still Game brings us right back to the standard of Fools And Horses. Here you'll find that like comedies such as Fools and Horses or Dads Army the characters are as important to the comedy as is the script. Thank God for Scottish humour.I wish I'd known about this in the first series instead of the third, now I'll have to see if my sides can take watching them on DVD.

The funniest thing coming from the UK comedy world at the present time.Every moment of this show is hilarious even when making some excellent point about old age, poverty and being alienated from the ephemeral trends of society. Tremendous use of Scots, slang and swearing – maybe the spark for Catherine Tate's grandmother – hard for a few to get, but worth sticking with -you 'will' get it. I guess not for you if you think Friends is the pinnacle of comedy, but a classic for those who don't…If you're an American 'Scat' then get these DVD's this is much more about your old country than 'Braveheart' and not a splash of woad around.10 out of 10Stevo

I'm a relative new comer to Still Game - have joined in watching the current Series (5) on BBC2, which ended it's run tonight. I find it to be an excellent show which doesn't take itself too seriously. The characters (Jack, Victor, Winston, Tam, etc) have lots of depth and are entirely believable in the way they approach life. As someone said in an earlier comment - these guys are 60/70 going on 20. It proves that when you become an older person, you don't have to become a miserable old so and so ! As an Englishman (and a Geordie) - I don't have any problem tying in with the Scottish SoH, and if people from 'down south' don't get the show, then that's their problem. Stick to your cockney rhyming slang on EastEnders.Looking forward to series 6 of Still Game. 'Mon Jack and Victor !

Still Game is an absolute little gem of a comedy taking Victor and Jack from their sketch's in 'Chewin the Fat'into the wider world of fictional Glasgow scheme estate Craigland.Victor and Jack are two elderly widowed gentlemen living in a grim world of scraping by on their pensions trying to keep warm in their high storey flats. But they make sure they make the most of their situation and it's pretty inspirational stuff.The best laughs come from the other characters, crafty Winston, gossip Isa, shopkeep Naveed, barman Boaby etc, plenty of good story lines and sharp put downs make for the type of show where if you buy the DVD you watch one episode and keep on until the end, then go out and buy the another series Sadly on the network the BBC has seen fit to screen only a select few episodes. Okay the accents and certain jokes/references require a knowledge of Scottish culture/dialect but like Rab C Nesbitt the comedy is strong enough to shine through.The laughs are often dark, and set amongst the bleak black drops of old age, poverty, crime, loneliness you name it! But like say 'One foot in the Grave' it is adept at handling serious situations then bringing us back to the comedy with just one hot line. For a spot of spirit in adversity look no further.
