Ricky's Film Review

Ricky's Film Review was a feature on Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant's Xfm radio show in which Gervais would incompetantly 'review' a film.

Details

Ricky's 'reviews' would usually consist of him solely describing the plot in a childish way, missing out major plot points in the film and instead focusing on the least important part, e.g. the elephants in The Jungle Book]. The films that were reviewed were always years old, and Ricky would ask directors to pay to him for a good review. However, despite Ricky's threatening to give a bad review for if he didn't get paid, he always gave films either 9/10 or 10/10.
