Truly the worst movie I've ever seen in a theater
Colibel
Terrible acting, screenplay and direction.

Bad Acting and worse Bad Screenplay

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

I really don't understand why so many people dislike this show. It certainly holds its own against all the other character based sketch shows that have appeared over the last few years.I didn't like her previous show 3 Non Blondes & had low expectations. Admittedly, there are a few sketches that fail to hit the mark (especially in the first series), but the majority make me laugh out loud. With such a large variety of characters & ideas there will always be some that you won't like. However, the richness of 'Little Miss Jocelyn' stems from this variety. Characters such as the Nigerian Driving Instructor, the Toilet Attendant, the Disgusting Shop worker, Gladys Kingston the foul mouthed man hater, the Dietician / Witchdoctor, Tantrum Woman and the Traffic Warden are used in the context of sketches but also in the real world in a hidden camera show style. This works beautifully & shows just how versatile & inventive Jocelyn Jee Esien is. Her skill at portraying so many very different comic characters (Old women, teenagers, men etc) in a convincing manner is impressive & so is the attention to detail. The Bus Driver & Traffic Attendant are absolutely spot on in the way they behave & speak and they're worryingly close to the real people who do those jobs.I love Gladys Kingston, the funeral chasing old ladies, the Umwopwopwopwops and the Toilet Attendant. Just give this show a chance. Don't avoid it just because a few people here hate it.

If you live in London, then you've probably "met" a lot of these characters. I'm not entirely sure that you would get a lot of it otherwise. Its strange because I didn't really like her previous show, "3 Non Blondes" much at all. Certainly one of the best attempts that I've ever seen to bring comedy with a more ethnic flavor to television. I'm not saying that its the best thing since "Father Ted", "Spaced" or "In The Thick of it" and not every sketch works, but for what it is I think it does very well and some sketches are very close to the bone (eg: the African nurse who kills the chicken in her office!)Check it out.

When I watched the show for the first time I thought 'oh another Little Britain clone' but I was pleasantly surprised by the following episodes. As with all new programme's i was too quick to judge and have found myself looking forward to future episodes. However there are some sketches and characters I still don't laugh at. The bus driving character Sheson is too similar to the traffic warden character of Jiffy to me to be considered an individually comical character. Despite this I still enjoy watching the show but as a 3 non blonds fan I'm bound to be a little biased. My favourite characters in Little Miss Jocelyn are Mrs Omwukuopopo (Nigerian Polygamist), Jiffy (Parking Attendant) and Fiona (A woman who doesn't want her colleagues to learn she's black) and these characters in my opinion really make the show. A criticism i must make though is that it seems like a female version of Little Britain and The Fast Show but I don't think it was intentional on Jocelyn's behalf.

What a load of pony. When Russ Abbott's final series was aired in the early nineties I thought that I had seen the nadir of sketch show comedy in this countries. That is until I saw this load of pig's garbage last night. There must be a BBC exec somewhere who has been caught on cam indulging in something pretty shocking by LMJ as there can be no other explanation for this programme being made. I am all for diversity but the standard of comedy that this BBC initiative has produced really is of 'Eurovision regional qualifiers' standard. The sad thing is that the girl has got talent, but the material is appalling and makes Jim Bowen's asides during Bulleye seem like "The Parrott Sketch"!
