A Fun Film!
A film that explores some of the human issues that men face in a really comedical way.

The Full Monty
This is a wonderful movie of some British Steel Workers who are laid off work. One guy has a son and cannot pay his child support, so he gets an ideal of forming a strippers group. No..it does not show the front of them.naked.. a disappointment..laughs. But is a great movie!

Finally,The Full Monty getting the proper DVD treatment it deserves!!!
This is a great 2-dvd set from Fox!!! It's called the The Fully Exposed Edition and it's so much better than the origianl 1999 DVD(when just a trailer was a big thing!),that one was non-amamorphic,this one fills the HD tv in all it's widescreen glory!!! There is a full monty of great extras on BOTH discs,this is one classy dvd set!!! This film was a unexpected hit all aound the globe,and was nominated for the Best Picture Oscar!!! A great little British comedy classic!!! Hopfully Waking Ned Devine will get the simalar Fox treatment,one can hope!!! Very recommended!!! A+

Fully exposéd
Please note that this is for the two-disc "Fully Exposed" edition:

If you're reading this you're probably already a fan or at least have read other reviews telling you how great the movie is, so I won't clutter the place with more of the same.

But it has to be said that after ten years of being stuck with a DVD that counts "Interactive Menus" as a special feature, I'm beside myself that there's finally some REAL special features to be had.

We get to see some of the history regarding the brass band featured throughout the film, development of the script and production, not to mention two different commentary tracks.

But the real gem, as far as I'm concerned, is the featurette "Translating English to English". It really exposes this bizarre paranoia that the American side of the production had.

Rewinding a bit, I started my Monty obsession with a VHS copy of the movie and always wondered why some of the words didn't match the facial movements of the actors. When the tape wore out I replaced it with the first DVD version, which had an "Original UK audio track" option. Playing that, I realised that they had dubbed some of the words for the US version and that's why it always looked so goofy.

Even funnier, it wasn't the weirder UK expressions like "Chuffing Nora" or "Don't get a benny on". No, they dubbed words like "DIY" into "how-to" and "tw-t" into "git". Tw-t into git?? How is "git" any easier for the supposedly confused American audience to understand?

So the featurette on the subject was just about as funny as the film itself and, for me, that alone was worth buying this version.

Definitely a must-have for any Full Monty fan.

Full Monte
This movie is hysterical!! Once you get by the British language, it is very funny.
