Great fun film. Well directed and loads of stars. Acting was brilliant. Take it as you find it light hearted and a feel food film
What an absolutely delightful film! If you want to see a feel-good movie of note, this is a very good choice - especially if you're middle-aged! Rob Brydon was excellent as Eric, a middle-aged man who's monotonous life is falling apart, and accidentally stumbles upon a way to feel good about himself again, and to escape from reality. This new life is beautifully filmed in contrast to his ordinary existence. The film features stunning imagery during his 'escape from reality' moments - especially the underwater scenes.
This is a beautiful, funny, uplifting film that will resonate with me for years to come, and one that I'm bound to watch again and again. The film also has a great soundtrack and score. LOVED it!

Well this movie is just pure fun! It's harmless, charming, cute and funny.
I love British humour it's raw and honest, this movie doesn't try hard it's just there for you to enjoy.
I doubt it will be a popular movie but they actually synchronise swim in it and they actually seem to have fun?! It's perfect.
Perfect little movie.
And the ending is also very very pleasantly surprising :)
Thanks to the producers for the existante of this movie.

Just watched Swimming with Men in Germany ahead of its UK release next month. Lots of laughs, good clean fun, but with an excellent message about team work and mateship. Don't let the title put you off- this is a great little gem of a film.
I laughed a few times during this film and it had the cast and story to be a real success however for all its potential it just feels extremely forced and cringeworthy for the majority not laughs and heartwarming as it should have aimed to be. That being said on the whole I still enjoyed it but I certainly wasn't blown away.
