London Calling

Right now you can watch London Calling in Australia on Amazon Prime Video, and in the US on Hulu and Kanopy — and it is funnier than its reputation suggests. The length is exactly right for the story it is telling — nothing rushed, nothing dragged out. 128 viewers have already rated it on TMDB — the kind of consensus that does not happen by accident. Josh Duhamel leads a cast with real comic timing. There is no real reason to keep putting it off — it is right there on Amazon Prime Video.

London Calling is not trying to be everything to everyone, and that focus is exactly what makes it work. Sharp writing and a well-matched ensemble are what separate London Calling from the crowd. After fleeing the UK from a job gone wrong, a down on his luck hitman is forced to babysit the son of his new crime boss and show him how to become a man. Josh Duhamel and Aidan Gillen lead a cast that brings real weight to the material. It was released in 2025. The real test of any comedy is whether it is still funny once you know all the jokes, and London Calling holds up on rewatch in a way that separates it from one-off curiosities. There is real craft here, even in the moments that do not fully land.

Comedy fans looking for a reliably funny watch will find it in London Calling. It has built its own audience without needing a direct comparison. Best experienced as a single, sustained watch from start to finish. Josh Duhamel sets the tone, but the supporting cast is where a lot of the best moments come from. A reliable pick for any night you want quality comedy without the homework.
