It's a great comedy!! Kinda a love or hate movie obviously from the comment. But if you love the witty satire and sarcastic humor then its for you! Simon Pegg is awesome and Nick Frost is Great!! Plus there are Zombies everywhere!!! Have fun!

You sound like the only opinion that matters is yours. Yeah I'm serious. I LOVED that movie. The phone part with Barbara was hilarious. How was it boring!!! There was a lot of talking but it all added up to something. IF the talking bored you then I bet you don't like a lot of great movies ie: The Shawshank Redemption. The action wasn't the point of the movie, you missed that totally. But hey, to each their own. All criticism aside tizzle, why don't you give us some of your great movies!?!?!

The Acid House (film)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Acid House

Directed by Paul McGuigan
Written by Irvine Welsh
Release date(s) 1998
Running time 111 min.
Language English
IMDb
The Acid House is a film adaptation of Irvine Welsh's short story collection The Acid House. Welsh himself wrote the screenplay, and appears as a minor character in the film.
[edit]Plot

The 1998 film, directed by Paul McGuigan, dramatises three stories from the book:
The Granton Star Cause is a comedy, where Bob is having a very bad day indeed. His parents throw him out so they can indulge in sado-masochism and he is sacked from his job, dumped by his girlfriend and dropped from his football team. It has elements of Franz Kafka's The Metamorphosis, as a pitiless God who transforms him into a fly as punishment for wasting his life.
A Soft Touch: Kevin McKidd plays a cuckolded husband while Gary McCormack is Larry, the ruthless upstairs neighbour who steals his electricity and his wife, played by Michelle Gomez.
The Acid House: An acid trip and a bolt of lightning result in amiable schemie Coco Brice exchanging places with the baby of a middle class couple.
All three sections are independent, but are linked by setting and by the reappearance of incidental characters, in particular Maurice Roëves who appears variously as an inebriated wedding guest, a figure in a dream, and a pub patron. All three of his parts symbolize a human manifestation of God.
The film offended elements of the UK tabloid press with a depiction of a cynical and jaded, foul-mouthed God, and in some countries (such as Canada and the United States) has been shown on television with subtitles because of most characters' heavy Scottish accents.
