Great comedy by Frears. A large part of the film we are snickering.
Brendan, nicknamed Bimbo, has lost his job and is feeling down. Together with his best friend Larry, a chronically unemployed person, they decide to start a burger cart. From then on, the little man's big adventure begins and it becomes laughter.
Especially Colm Meaney as the loud Larry jumps off the screen but actually you see that everyone enjoys it. I didn't think the ending was successful and leaves too many questions open about the future of the two friends.
