The Borrowers

This is fast-moving comedy action right from the start. There's a good dollop of slapstick in it and, in true Bugs Bunny tradition, the bad guy always gets the metaphorical pie in the face. It's only 87 minutes long but there's so much in it you'll feel like you've watched a much longer film. Once isn't enough either because there's too much to take in.

Important note: Do not adjust your set! And don't send your DVD back either. The lurid, over-saturated colours are intentional. Is this how borrowers are supposed to see us? You can try to adjust it out but I never bother. You soon get used to it.

PS: See how many Morris cars you can spot in the background.
