TheMovieSearch R @TheMovieSearch Dec 26 The television revival of The Full Monty is a deeply disappointing misfire that completely misses what made the original film resonate. Instead of expanding on the humor, heart, and working class desperation that once defined the story, the series delivers a flat, unfocused narrative with sluggish pacing and little emotional payoff. From the very first episode, it feels aimless and exhausting rather than engaging. The screenplay is the show’s biggest failure. Dialogue is dull, scenes drag endlessly, and there are no standout moments that justify the revival. Even with the return of the original cast, the series relies too heavily on nostalgia while offering almost no meaningful character growth or creative spark. By the end, there is no payoff, no evolution, and no reason for this story to exist. Without sharp writing, energy, or purpose, The Full Monty series becomes an unnecessary continuation that ultimately weakens the legacy of the original film. It never earns its own identity.

She’s not a strong enough actress to carry a series and her character is as very cringe from the start and extremely unlikeable…I’m unsure why they pushed her character so much. It’s a same because everyone else did a really good job. See more Janine W @RT87082014 Jun 24 Terrible, don’t see the point See more Carolyn O @RT24084486 01/24/2024 Loved it. Each episode got better and better with a stunning final episode. Can't speak highly enough of it. See more Taposh B @RT56738046 09/16/2023 It's not just funny. It's really meaningful. Serious commentary on the country in a deceptively funny package See more Italian G @RT20249982 07/19/2023 I'm kind of shocked that the score is as low as it is here. I think that this show is GREAT, although misleading by naming it after the original movie because (spoiler alert) no "full montys" happening. It is very entertaining, some great acting and it kept me wanting more as soon as the episodes ended. I had to learn the British slang I kept hearing & now it is easier to get the nuances. People are sleeping on this show and I feel like they are giving lower scores because nobody dropped trou in this series. Give it a watch, it's worth it. I'm sad I binged it so quick and can't wait until Season 2! See more Read all reviews
