Cruise of the Gods (2002)
This is a TV movie (comedy drama) made by the BBC. The film is about the cast of a fictional eighties Sci-fi TV series (Children of Castor) that reunite twenty years later to attend a fan cruise. One of the series leads has gone on to big things, the other has not.
I really enjoyed the 'in world' details, such as the original premise of Children of Castor: a series following the exploits of a new romantics band that has to survive in a post apocalyptic wastland. Now, that's a show i would watch!
It is generally well acted (especially Coogan and Brydon), and works as an affectionate look at the world of fandoms. I would say that, overall, the drama elements work better than the comedy ones. If both had been on point, this film would have been properly amazing
This is one for people who enjoy looking at fandom and fame, or are themselves fans of British comedy films.
Content warning: it does contain appearance by James Corden and David Walliams (...and a mercifully brief cameo by Russell Brand). On the plus side, their performances are not an ego driven mess at this stage.
