There are moments when “The Full Monty” veers a little too close to schmaltz, but it never succumbs. It’s a bittersweet look at the British working class, elevated by a charismatic cast and a tone that, even amid the personal pain and systemic failures, is tinged with optimism.
Doubtless some viewers will find “The Full Monty” sentimental to a fault, though sentiment was key to the success of the movie.
Good, sharply written (and acted) series that lacks the sizzle, pop and magic of the movie.
There are issues of pacing here, both with the plotting and the dialogue. .... Still, for all the kitchen-sink bleakness, its community spirit still crackles with warmth, offering glimmers of hope.
Stream it, but only because all of the characters from The Full Monty that you loved in the ’90s are back and as quirky as ever in the new series. But, just like the dog that got kidnapped in the first episode, the show is a bit shaggy and aimless, which may make your goodwill for these characters wane after a few episodes.
“The Full Monty” gives us heartfelt but overlong and comedically underwhelming looks at the different lives of the Monty men and others in their orbit.
Disappointing slog.
