Sumotherhood

Whether you like <em>'Sumotherhood'</em> or not is probably based on if you like 2011's <em>'Anuvahood'</em>. I think both films are on the same level. I remember that other flick being quite popular at my school at the time, me and my mates would even quote bits - none more so than that Fruittella line, which is amusingly called back to in this one. There are many callbacks, despite it not being an actual sequel. On that note, I'm not sure why it isn't (was initially billed as such); seems an odd decision, a behind the scenes issue, I guess? It, like the first one, is an extremely silly movie. If you just come into this not knowing anything about it then I'd say it's likely you'll really dislike it. I probably would in that scenario, though due to the first film I knew exactly what was going to greet my eyes with this more recent release. The stuff at the bank is standout of the movie, the only scenes that made me cringe were the ones involving Bhasker Patel and his crew. Adam Deacon and Jazzie Zonzolo are the ones who again lead this mess (which it is, objectively) and they make it work, to be fair. Kobna Holdbrook-Smith is genuinely the best actor here though, he makes his character more noteworthy than others would've. Richie Campbell is as cuckoo as before, while certain cameos from a musician and a politician are funny. I also appreciate Vas Blackwood, as well as Eddie Kadi's return. We all have those films that you enjoy just enough, despite all logic telling you they are terrible productions. These sorta flicks, which are welcome, are exactly that for me. If I said I disliked it, I'd be lying.
