“The Full Monty” is British comedy at its worst. The putrid screenplay by Simon Beaufoy and extremely sloppy directing by Peter Cattaneo make this movie dull and unappealing. It is the story of six unemployed Englishmen in Sheffield who decide to form a male striptease act to generate income.
The hapless and uncomely group is played by Tom Wilkinson, Robert Carlyle, Mark Addy, Steve Huison, Paul Barber, and Hugo Speer. Amazingly, the vapid film “The Full Monty” was a hit in theatrical release for Channel Four Films, Redwave Films, and Fox Searchlight Pictures. It won a single Academy Award for Best Original Musical or Comedy Score.
