Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.

It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.

Dom Joly is the perfect guy for a hidden camera show. I love show where people fool the public. There very simple and very funny. One reason I think Dom Joly is good for these types of shows is his voice. Its just a funny British voice. I'm surprised the people don't recognize one the show. There has to be at least one time where hes fooling somebody and they recognize him. They should air those on Bloopers. The English version is just as funny as the American version, but I do like to see the sites in the English version, what it looks like in England. I really miss this show. Well at least Comedy Central shows the reruns and keeps this great show popular.

Okay, I hear a lot of people say that this is the British form of "Jackass," but that is far from the truth. What the Brits do is not crude, gross out humor, where they staple their body parts or run around trying to inflict pain on each other. A little more random acts of insanity occur in "Trigger Happy" as opposed to the random acts of stupidity in "Jackass." Trigger happy is the kind of stuff you and your friends could do (and believe me we have) and not get arrested for it. One of the greatest moments ever was where one was dressed in a a turtle outfit and was waiting at a cross walk. The cars stopped, he got down on his knees and slowly crossed. After about a minute and a half another guy dressed in a rabbit outfit ran passed him. London motorists laughed, I laughed, all my friends laughed. The stuff is classic, and I recommend watching the new seasons on Comedy Central...10/10!!!

Dom Jolly, what can you say? He thinks of the stupidest things to do........... and does them. Never has someone acting so dumb (but still being extremely intelligent) been so funny. The exterminator coming round to get rid of the rat, only to find a man dressed in a giant rat suit reading a paper, and also interviewing Peter Stringfellow while unloading giant boxes of "Peter Stringfellow's Musk" and g-strings etc. in the background, the list goes on. If you think getting the DVD will make it annoying, think again - the commentary makes it more hilarious as Dom gives you the details of their antics and any problems etc. and it makes the scenes even more hilarious.Genius.

HELLO?!!! NO, I'M COMMENTING ON TRIGGER HAPPY TV!! YES...NO!...YOU'RE BREAKING UP, I CAN'T HEAR YOU!!!!!! If you don't have a clue what I just did, watch an episode of Trigger Happy TV and it'll all make sense. When I first saw it, I was quick to jump to conclusions that it was just some British take on Jackass or some trash like that and quickly dismissed it. Until I really began watching it(I don't remember what originally inspired me to, I think I saw a few more previews)and found comic gold. I understand there aren't any more episodes being made, which is a real shame, but I think I smell a DVD collection certainly worth buying. His gags are smart(but not like a Frasier episode) and yet some of them are rather crude, though he almost never resorts to making jokes about farts and crap. He also never inflicts bodily harm on himself or any other, he simply messes with people's minds and that is something that is very funny to watch. I'm very glad that the episodes that made it here did, but I don't think all of them have. I think we should get at least that. Dom Joly is not a genius, he's just someone who has some hilarious ideas and a craving to mess about with the general public. His jokes mostly work with a great set up and a powerful punchline. If you haven't given it a chance, you definitely should.
