Peter Bradshaw, The Guardian, 26th September 2014What We Did On Our Holiday review
Some would have blanched at making this anything other than either a wild farce or a much darker comedy, but it's in that mid-ground, where other comedy directors may fear to tread, that Hamilton and Jenkin thrive.
Mark Harrison, Den Of Geek, 26th September 2014What We Did On Our Holiday review
What We Did On Our Holiday is proof of the adage 'never judge a book by its cover'. Andy Hamilton and Guy Jenkin's movie is not the film its trailer makes it out to be, it's a lot more surprising and ambition than the sedate fare you'd expect based on the promos.
Simon Reynolds, Digital Spy, 25th September 2014What We Did On Our Holiday review
If you like Outnumbered, you'll love this, as there's more than enough surprises to justify Andy Hamilton and Guy Jenkin taking their tried and tested approach with child actors to the big screen.
Jay Richardson, Chortle, 23rd September 2014What We Did on Our Holiday - review
From the creators of TV's Outnumbered comes this enjoyable British comedy that takes the show's winning formula (talented and adorable children, a script that allows those children to improvise much of their dialogue) and successfully translates it to the big screen. The result is both charming and hilarious.
