Editorial DVD Review
[Top]
A bawdy, ultimately moral tale of hedonisms complications, Is Harry on the Boat? is probably the most memorable film to come out of the culture of young singles holidays on Ibiza. Tour rep Brad is determined to win the informal competition among the male reps to sleep with as many female clients as possible, while his friend Mikey is looking for true love. Brad gradually learns responsibility & human concern from the awful examples set by corrupt manageress Alison & self-serving treacherous super-stud Mario. Along the way we get some memorably gross-jokes & one or two moments of rather touching tenderness, as well as a convincing portrait of what people go to Ibiza for, loud, large times of music & drunken excess. Dyer is convincing as a young man who learns better from experience & Des Coleman makes Mikey a three-dimensional, soulful romantic with a wicked sense of humour rather than merely Good personified.
