Ghastly!
26 November 2008
I couldn't watch this film past the first 20 minutes. It's that bad, folks. The main character, Poppy, is the personification of a ditsy, astonishingly irritating pill of a woman.

I'm a big fan of the campy, cheesy, B-movies from the 70s. These sorts of films are so bad, that they're good. A real guilty pleasure. Happy-Go-Lucky is just plain lousy, with no redeeming qualities.

Poppy is a 30-year-old teacher, who behaves like a hyperactive 6-year-old. Of course a 6-year-old is usually ridiculously cheery, as most kids that age are. But to see a 30-year old act like this, is gruesome.

There still aren't that many films, where women are portrayed as commanding respect. In my humble opinion, the character of Poppy, is NOT a positive role model for young women. Unless they aspire to be empty-headed, annoying, and trite.
