Cebalord Very best movie i ever watch

BootDigest Such a frustrating disappointment

Senteur As somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.

m_pratt Amazing would not be enough to describe this film. Its magical and a must for on the buses fans. The scenario is that jack Stan and Blakey are out on their heel after causing an accident ramming the managers car and smashing a bus. We next see them seeking employment and they get a job at a holiday camp in North wales driving bus loads of tourists to and from the railway station sounds simple doesn't it? no it cant possibly be!! it turns out that jack and Stan haven't escaped from Blakey who is the head of security!!! And of course it wouldn't be a on the buses film without olive Arthur and the crew tagging along! and they leap from disaster to the next it ranges from olive walking into the gents getting into bed with the next door holidaymaker blowing up the toilet and having to redecorate the chalet because little Arthur fires paint or some substance on the walls and olive losing her bikini bottom in the pool. There is even a flash of bare breasts. I like this film very much even old man step toe appears doing a very good Irish accent. It makes a change to see the gang somewhere else instead of at home or at the bus depot and Stan and jack still cant leave the women alone!! what i like about this film is the 1970s atmosphere its relaxed and is interesting to see that holiday camps have changed very little today. And of course Jack and Stan and Blakey find themselves seeking employment again! at the end of the film for submerging a bus out at sea trying to get their leg over! and Blakey is sacked for what the manager thinks is the same thing! the film ends with Stan at his new job driving a demolition crane knocking down ( correct me if I'm wrong) what looks like the bus depot? so they would have got the sack anyway? I could go but all I'm going to say i really enjoyed it and its a pity a 4th film wasn't made.

Andrew-1589 The film is a third film, after On The Buses, Muninty On The Buses. Story Line: Stan & Jack also Inspector Blake loose there jobs, when Stan its the manager's car also causes damages to the bus as the Inspector Blake gets in trouble for not telling him about the bus coming. but Inspector Blake gets a job, why Stan & Jack cannot get a job. Why Arthur as to figure away for to get money for the hole family, but Lucky Jack finds a job in the paper, when it says busmen wanted for Pontings holiday camp, in Wales.& they both get jobs as busmen at pontings, but Inspector Blake as got a new job there as well as security guard, they met as Stan tries to get out of through the gates.but at the time Inspector Blake his going out with the nurse, but Jack his sneaking the nurse room, & benting to have broken his leg. but Blake must not find out because he would kill Jack, also the butler family stay with Stan at Pontings as well oh no trouble.-but I don't understand I thought Stan had went to work in the midlands in a factory, Arthur had divorced Olive, & Olive in Munity was excepting a baby in that, but there was only little Arthur.

bob the moo When a woman's breasts pop out of her top running for the bus, it distracts driver Stan who crashes into several cars and a bus. As a result Stan, Jack and Blakey find themselves on the dole queue. Jack and Stan find a job driving buses as part of a holiday camp and are only slightly put off when they find that Blakey has also managed to get himself a job there too.As somebody who spent too many childhood holidays in Butlins-style parks and various caravan sites, I must agree that the horrors of the average holiday camp are ripe for a bit of mocking – a fact that makes it all the worse that the film completely misses the chance to make fun of it. In fact the film just accepts the holiday camps for what they are and sets about with a plot that just seems the characters chasing a series of girls. If you are familiar with the On The Buses series then there will be no surprises to you as it is all the usual stuff just transposed to the holiday camp. If you enjoy the TV series then you'll like this, but if you dislike the very basic sexist humour of the 1970's then you'll more than dislike this film. It's not particularly funny and I found it poor from start to finish. The few years since 'Mutiny on The Buses' meant that the film had become more daring and it opens with a flash of boobs that the previous film had only implied – if this plus sexist humour is what you are after then you'll be at home here, but my tastes are a bit above the poor British sex 'comedies' from the 1970's.The original cast all return and it helps the film keep the standard of the TV series (if only that was a good thing!). The only downside of this is that all the cast are pretty old and it's all a bit tasteless to see them chasing girls clearly in their twenties! Varney and Grant do their usual lecherous stuff and they are just what the material deserves – and I don't mean that in a good way. Lewis is easily the best character as his jokes are more physical than sexual and are at least a little funny. Robbins and Karen play the sort of British people that I would cross a country to avoid, never mind the street! Wilfred Brambell hasn't got much to do but his presence at least is something different to distract from the poor material all round.Overall this is a pretty poor film and the fact that it was produced by Hammer just makes it all the more amusing that it turned out to be a really dated horror. The gags are poor, the material very thin and it does nothing that makes it stand out from the hoards of crude sex comedies that the UK pushed out in the 1970's. Fans of the series will enjoy it but the rest of us will just be grateful that they don't make them like this anymore (well, not very often anyway!).

Tyrone_Smollox If you were growing up in Britain in the 1970s or early 80s, then Holiday On The Buses will provide you with a very potent hit of nostalgia that will doubtless get you talking about "the good old days". It's nobody's idea of sophisticated, and the arthouse crowd should avoid it like the plague, but if you approach it with an open mind you'll probably have a good time.It's all very predictable, of course, but it fits in nicely with a sub-genre of British comedy best described as "everything goes wrong" where it sits alongside Fawlty Towers and Some Mothers Do 'Ave 'Em. There are plenty of minor stars on display soon, such as Grange Hill's Mr Bronson, regular Benny Hill sidekick Henry McGee, Joan from Love Thy Neighbour and the inimitable Arthur Mullard.It's not quite Carry On, but it passes the time painlessly.
