Huge is a 2010 British comedy film. It isBen Miller's debut as a director and an adaptation of a stage play written by Miller,Jez Butterworth and Simon Godley.[2]
The playHuge was a hit atEdinburgh Festival Fringe and it took Miller fifteen years to get the film adaptation made.[3] While the play was co-written with Jez Butterworth and Simon Godley, Butterworth was committed to working onFair Game and was unable to take part in writing the film adaptation.[2]
Thandiwe Newton's role was written for her but she had reservations so Miller worked with script editor Jay Basu to rewrite and incorporate Newton's suggestions.[1]
The film was poorly received with a 14% rating atRotten Tomatoes.[4]Time Out gave the film one star and called the film "half-formed."[5]The Guardian agreed calling the film "quite a finished product" but called it "an affectionate and promising debut" for filmmaker Miller.[2]Empire gave the film two stars and called it "fatally unfunny."[6]
