Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Hilarious - way ahead of it's time
The subtle humour of the dialog and awkward situations in this mostly uneventful film set on a camp-site can only be appreciated by a particular sense of humour. It takes a while to really get going but it'll have you cringing and laughing all at the same time pretty much from the 'Going to the zoo' song onwards. You'll either find this very funny, or you just won't get it at all - which might be scary becuase you might be just like one of these people if that's the case!

I can see where the League of Gentelmen got 'The Dentons' from in their BBC series now - which I'd thoroughly recommend if you like this kind of humour.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - You will either love it or hate it!
Pure Brilliant. The are not words that can describe how superb this is. Its just so funny in a way that only certain people can really appreciate its comic genious. Its just so good in that it is all improvised with no script or anything. It must take some talent to be able to make a whole film in that way and still keep it good and in this case it was not good but brilliant. Even the names of the characters are funny. The fight seen is a must see, just how did they keep a straight face? And the strange thing to think about is that there are people actually like this out there somewhere and going through that same things. There will never me an improvised follow up to thins that is as good. But the one thing to remember is that you will either love it or hate it!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - one of his best
people know mike leigh more for his recent dramatic efforts, namely secrets and lies, and naked.however his early films are the true jewels in the crown of the director.films such as grown ups,home sweet home, and meantime are all classics.nuts in may, however, is the funniest.perhaps it is the protaganist, keiths, absurd need for total dominance over any situation which makes it so hysterical.certainly the performance by roger sloman is incredible, i dont know why he wasnt in more films.as we slowly see him lose control, as the campsite he and his wife visit slowly has its peace disturbed by increasing numbers of fellow campers, the film reaches higher and higher levels of torturous embarrasment-and the viewer is embarrased for keith who is like an alien amongst the people he is surrounded ...

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Bald as a baby's bum, Keith...
I first saw Nuts in May when it was screened by the Beeb in 1975.I almost died from laughing so much. Now I have it on video and reach for it at moments when I need reminding about the essential absurdities of day-to-day life. Mike Leigh is an absolute genius and his powers of observation spot-on. Alison Steadman as Candice Marie was never better, giving a performance that surpassed even her role as the Essex girl from hell in Abigail's Party. As for Roger Sloman, whatever happened to this brilliant actor? He deserved a knighthood at the very least.
