Deliver to GERMANY
IFor best experience Get the App
Comedy-drama from director Julian Jarrold based on actual events in the UK town of Northampton. Charlie Price (Joel Edgerton), owner of the traditional men's footwear factory that has survived in his family for generations, faces the imminent closure of his beloved business which would have a severe impact on the employment prospects of local people. That is, until a chance meeting with flamboyant cabaret act Lola (Chiwetel Ejiofor) convinces him that, to stay afloat, his company's footwear range will have to branch out. Turning out stylish kinky boots for transvestites like Lola and her colleagues is not quite what he had in mind.

An almost modern Ealing comedy.
This is another film which for some peculiar reason have not been released on Blu-ray in the UK; why? Germany have release a version of it. However this US release plays region free and there is extras. Deleted scenes, with optional commentary track, ; Featurettes: The Real Kinky Boots Factory & The Journey of a Brogue; as well as Director and stars commentary. This is well worth getting. The films a hoot.

Fact or Fiction
Even if I absolutely love a film or product, I find it hard to just go ahead and give it 5 stars, because there is always something that could probably have been done better.For weeks now, I catch myself humming "Whatever Lola Wants" and it's always Chiwetel's voice singing along in my head! This film is both funny and sad. It is full of pathos, as you are pulled into the world of Lola. Despite the title, Kinky Boots is about a man trying to save his business. Yes there is a love interest & lots of Chiwetel in a dress, but in truth, there is nothing particularly "kinky" about this film. There were elements of this film that do bother me, enough to not give it 5 stars, but overall, the film is thoroughly enjoyable.A must watch if you like films based on a true(ish) story or you just need something to make you smile. You will probably never look at burgundy in the same way again.

Teaches the acceptances of genders, sexuality and differences through shoes! Awesome movie!
This movie is so so great! I already loved the DragQueen world and this movie teaches people about them and about the acceptance of people differences and genders/sexuality through the shoes! Ain't that a good idea!? Heh!I personnally love that movie!One of my favorite!

Gute Blu-ray Disc und guter Film
Mit der Qualität der Blu-ray disc bin sehr zufrieden. Der Ton als auch das Bild ist exzellent. Zum Film selbst dieser Film hat eine sehr gute Story die auf wahren Begebenheiten beruht. Sie ist sehr unterhaltsam, hat einen gewissen Charme, Ernsthaftigkeit und Witz gleichermaßen, und kann dazu beitragen Vorurteile abzubauen. Ich habe diesen Film mir schon mehrere Male angesehen, und war bisher nie gelangweilt, und konnte immer wieder etwas neues entdecken innerhalb einer Szene oder Darstellung. Für mich ein sehr guter Film mit viel Wahrheit darin.

So gay and So good !
Ma copine l'a vu à new york, j'ai vu qu'une comédie musicale se déroulait en honneur au film, je lui ai offert et moi même étant fan de comédie UK je n'ai pas été déçu, c'est tellement revigorant comme film ! Les anglais savent mettre des coups là ou il faut pour se tordre de rire !

A real charmer must see
Have wanted this movie for a long time and finally have it. I want to see the musical show from it in New York this year. It's such an unusual, offbeat, unique story that proves life imitates art. Love, love this movie
