David Brent: Life on the Road was a ton of silly fun. Gervais is still perfect as awkward idiot David Brent and there are plenty of laugh-out-loud moments to enjoy.

Gervais is still perfect as awkward idiot David Brent and there are plenty of laugh-out-loud moments to enjoy. The climax is a little contrived and can't quite deliver the same payoff as the Christmas specials it so obviously apes. But this is still a massive amount of fun for fans of The Office. Expand

For a comedy based on following an underdogs impossible dream of making it in the music industry, it's surprisingly good. Avoiding most possible cheesy feel good movie plot tropes, it instead takes the path of utter cringe and depression displaying the vulnerability of David's man child persona in the most awkward ways. It was very entertaining! And the songs are easily as good as tenacious d etc. Fantastic.

A masterpiece. Ricky Gervais makes me laugh so hard I cry. A lot of people won't love this or even like it and I feel genuinely sorry for them.

The guy you love to hate is back, David Brent now a "rockstar" on tour with his band. The characters are real and well written, the music is good with some of the weirdest lyrics you'll ever hear.

The characters are real and well written, the music is good with some of the weirdest lyrics you'll ever hear. It's cringy and awkward but more importantly it's funny, very funny.
