Star rating: **
Dir: Baillie Walsh
With: Daniel Craig, Harry Eden, Olivia Williams

The titular blockhead in Baillie Walsh's debut feature is none other than Daniel "007" Craig, previously licensed to thrill, here at liberty to get in and out of a movie pronto. We've no sooner seen Craig's fading movie star character, Joe Scott, in a drug-fuelled threesome in LA than he's casting his mind back to a fateful summer in England long ago. What looked at first like a tasty movie thereafter passes like a wet fortnight in Bognor. Craig, a producer of the film, livens things up on his reappearance, but by then the entire enterprise has begun to look like an excuse for a jolly by the seaside and a chance to play some ace Seventies music. Pretty pictures, pretty people, pretty pointless.
