A full-on local crowd-pleaser, "Blackball" takes the genteel sport of, uh, lawn bowling and comes up with a shameless slice of Brit flag-waving comedy. March 27, 2009 | Full Review…

I can think of only two explanations for its comprehensive badness. Either the director, Mel Smith, went through the script, carefully excising all the funny lines, or Firth sub-contracted the writing chores to his accountant. September 18, 2003 | Full Review…

The laughs here are way off-target. This Brit-flop won't be bowling anyone over. July 22, 2015 | Rating: 1/5 | Full Review…

Tim Firth's script is functional on a sitcom level at best, and Mel Smith's direction differs from the usual hack job only in being a bit worse (especially in the frequent montages set to rock songs). October 18, 2008 | Full Review…

It just winds up as another filmmaking exercise where it's thought that the story is there, but in reality, it got drunk at the corner bar and puked all over the characters. April 7, 2005 | Rating: 2.5/5 | Full Review…

Shares very little in common with the anarchic humor of the magazine, live shows, records or movies that made the Lampoon name so venerated in the first place. February 11, 2005 | Rating: C- | Full Review…

Blackball is a cinematic dirty bomb, a mediocre "comedy" that offers as many laughs as a dentist's drill. February 11, 2005 | Rating: 0.5/4
