Seb In this completely unfunny and self-consciously quirky pile of tosh some faces who you'll recognise from some equally unfunny TV shows trek to the pole. Aside from the big dollop of populist anti-scientific cult- like global warming nonsense the film just isn't funny at all.What is funny though is that the cast and crew have been STRAIGHT onto the IMDb to post a load of totally unconvincing fake reviews. I mean check them out, most of them are saying they can't wait till the DVD is released or praising this as a masterpiece. Yet weirdly, not one of them have written another review for any other movie. Naturally they found this one so good they had to dash on to register and give it a 10 though. They aren't the first crappy movie to do this, they're just the most blatant. Check out the internet and you'll find them begging people to come on and give them a good review, pathetic. I appreciate that our film industry is on its arse but we aren't that desperate yet. Come on guys, a 10 from everyone? At least throw in a couple of 8's and 7's to make it look a bit more convincing.This film is a waste of time. It's not funny, it's not entertaining and it doesn't deserve more than three stars. I gave it one since the cast and crew have decided it's a 10. Why is it everything to do with global warming (re-branded as climate change) has that air of scam about it? I hope this one loses more money than it makes, it deserves it for boring the hell out of me and riding the liars bandwagon just as the wheels fall off.

emij This film made me laugh from beginning to end. Beyond the Pole has brilliant cast of the top British actors, add to that the beautiful scenery, and the mockumentary style of story telling and you have all the right ingredients for a fantastic British film. The script is superbly written with heart warming characters over-coming adversity by attempting to be the first Carbon Neutral, Vegetarian, Organic expedition ever to reach the North Pole. Rhys Thomas is hilarious as Brian and the interaction between him and Stephen Mangan (Mark) as they pursue their heroic trip feels natural. I think that this could have all the success of "Full Monty" and "Four Weddings". I would love to go and see this film again and take my friends along for a really great feel good evening.

Emily Clements I'm lucky enough to have seen Beyond The Pole at a preview a few months ago and it was absolutely fabulous. A thought provoking message wrapped up in a hilarious plot, the story is well told and the characters are excellent. The film is incredibly well cast and the locations are stunning. I know everyone mentions it, but the scene with the biscuit is so funny I could hardly breathe, and yet there are other parts in the film that are incredibly emotionally charged.I hardly stopped laughing all the way though! All in all I left feeling energised and positive - a great uplifting film that everyone must go and see! Bring on the release!! (I'll go again!)

Jim Bacon I really love this film. Its a spoof eco doc about one man's attempt to walk to the North Pole. The first carbon neutral, vegetarian unassisted attempt. The cast are familiar to followers of British comedy and the performances are universally excellent. It certainly has moments of low budgetness but then that is also part of its charm. It reminds me of other great spoof docs like Spinal Tap but with a very clear environmental agenda. It is very good at laughing at itself while still staying on message. It is very funny in a very British sort of way but also manages to be profoundly moving at times as well which is a very difficult thing to pull off. If you get the chance, see it.
