Synopsis

Taking its title from the black British slang for chatting up women, this genial comedy centres on emotionally stunted 30-something Clint Dyer, who is given a week to sort out his life by long-suffering girlfriend Kaye Bridgeman. The speeches to camera and Felix Dexter's trio of supporting roles don't always pay off and some may find the jokey chauvinism irksome. The inevitable comparisons are with Alfie, but Kolton Lee's feature debut actually owes more to the early films of Spike Lee, as it combines a certain visual confidence with plenty of street-smart chat.
