James Nesbitt’s forgotten Irish comedy is now on Netflix
Ah, James Nesbitt’s delightful comedy “Waking Ned” has surfaced once more on the streaming behemoth that is Netflix UK and Ireland! As a seasoned gamer of cinematic adventures, I can attest that this film, originally released in 1998, holds a special place in my heart.
James Nesbitt’s forgotten Irish comedy Waking Ned is now available on Netflix UK and Ireland.
1998 saw the debut of the movie called “Waking Ned Devine” in the U.S., featuring an early performance by the actor known for his roles in “Cold Feet” and “The Missing”.
The movie tells a story about a pair living in rustic Ireland, uncovering the fact that a nearby resident has struck it rich from a lottery win and is now extraordinarily affluent.
As I delved deeper into the game’s mystery, I finally uncovered the identity of the elusive winner… but boy, did things take an unexpected turn! The story took a hilarious twist as layers upon layers of deception unfolded. Rest assured, no spoilers here!
In truth, the movie “Waking Ned” boasts a robust rating on Rotten Tomatoes. It earned an impressive 84% from 61 reviews by critics, and an even higher 88% from more than 25,000 audience ratings. A recurring theme in the reviews is that the film offers a relaxing, uplifting viewing experience, filled with robust, straightforward humor.
The movie earned approximately $55 million globally at the box office, but it’s not a title frequently discussed these days. Could its addition to Netflix revitalize its popularity?
The streaming platform has been enriched with several works by Nesbitt, such as the ITV series “The Secret” released in 2016, along with Channel 4 productions like “Babylon” from 2014 and “Suspect” that aired in 2022.
As a gaming enthusiast, I’m super excited to share that the release date for the highly anticipated Harlan Coben thriller, “Missing You,” has finally been revealed! This gripping tale brings together familiar faces like Nesbitt and the recurring Coben star, Richard Armitage. Can’t wait to jump into this adventure!
Much like the series “Fool Me Once,” which premieres this year, the new show is set to debut on Netflix on New Year’s Day. The story revolves around Detective Kat Donovan as she encounters her long-lost fiancé who vanished 11 years ago and uncovers hidden truths about her father’s murder.
Waking Ned is available to stream now on Netflix UK and Ireland.
