Audience Reviews

Ian Beale 10/10 Feb 12, 2017
**Reg Varney is a genius in this**

I love this classic of 70's British cinema. The Americans can keep The Godfather - give me Go For A Take any day of the week. Two gamblers hide in a film studio LOL. The jokes fly thick and fast as they avoid actors dressed as Dracula and swing on ropes and other things on the movie set to escape.


Sadly underrated over the years the film is now gaining a cult following and is slowly being recognised as a classic - receiving the respect it deserves at last.
