Grow Your Own (2007)
British comedy today with an large cast of television regulars including Omid Djalili and Olivia Colman. Immigrants with a troubled past are given allotments to help them worth through their issues, culture clash with the locals ensue.
This film is the type that we churn out in Britain these days, fairly light comedy with a simple message underneath. Lightweight is probably the best way to describe this film, it's not especially funny and the over arching plot involving a mobile phone company is pretty poor. What is good about this film is the characters of the immigrants and the struggles they face, unfortunately the serious issues are not really given enough depth or proper exploration given the nature of the film.
3/5 average cheap British comedy.
