Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.

This comedy, based on the book by Colin Butts, follows the adventures of a group of holiday reps from a 18-30 like club during one season in Ibiza. Very much of its time, the film stays true to the book with an abundance of sex and drugs. Although the film is carried by the likable nature of most of the characters and some humorous situations with some unusual plot twists, it ultimately ends up being a boy meets girl true love is better than free sex story. Indeed one of the criticisms is that the ending is a little rushed and thus unsatisfactory. While it does make for compelling viewing and is quite amusing, in essence it is an update version of the successful 60's carry on films but given a modern twist.

Is Harry on the Boat is a hilarious tale of holiday reps in Ibiza, portraying the typical 18-30's holiday to a tee! The actors performances are brilliant, Danny Dyer as new rep Brad, introduced to the debauchery,including an interesting competition, as we are by the hilarious Wil Mellor as Greg. And of course we cant forget Marios 'Big Man!!!'.A brilliant film full of laughs that I would recommend to anyone! Though it is not without its serious moments the laughs come thick and fast. A summer movie to watch with mates that makes you dream of holidays, or even packing in your day job and signing up to be a rep yourself!!p.s The soundtrack generates much interest but an official soundtrack was never released unfortunately. However i do know that one of the songs is Jaydee- Plastic Dreams. its from my favourite bit of the film so check it out for yourself!!!

When I saw the ad for this on TV I was expecting another silly Sky One show about Brits in Ibiza but what I got was a really funny and entertaining 2 hours! It was a great show and I would imagine it to be realistic in terms of what those holiday reps get up to when they're supposed to be working. The characters were really good from the poncy loverboy Mario to the good hearted Brad and they were characters that you cared about and were interested in how things would turn out for them. I thought this was going to be a weekly series so I'm a bit disappointed that it was only a once off but I won't complain as it was the best bit of TV I've seen in a while!
