  Loved the hell out of this movie, Jerry Boyle was a really interesting character, and this movie had one of the most satisfying endings I've seen in awhile. High Full Price

  @Kevin McMullin

   

  Saw that play a year ago with Chris Pine as the lead. I fucking loved it except for the dead cat theme.

  Great review, its good to see such a random little Irish movie being watched by people across the pond. I would've thought the non-irish out there would have trouble with some of the pretty damn colloqial accents though?!

  You say that this movie is like in Bruges will his brother Martin McDonagh wrote and directed that movie, he is also a well know playwrite of the Pillowman and the Lieutenant of Inishmore one of my favorite batshit crazy plays.

   

   

  In a nutshell a known Irish terrorist goes on a bloody rampage to avenge the murder of his cat,

  It's the only play that is a mixture of violence and comedy I know about out there.

  @Amy

  There is a difference between "bitchy" and "lame jokey".

  One of the films of the year for me. Loved the film to bits and was by far the best comedy i've seen in a long time

  You can understand Irish culture and comedy and not like the film. Give me In Bruges, Breakfast on Pluto, or The Commitments. This just wasn't as good.

  I honestly can't understand anything these Irishmen are saying in the movie. I need subtitles.

  I loved In Bruges, and this looks fantastic.

  Being Irish myself, I can say that the Irish poster for this film does actually have Don Cheadle on it, and that I loved this film to bits. FULL PRICE

  Here's a weird fact for ya; In Irish Language the term "Duine gorm" translates as "black person", but the word "gorm" by itself actually means "blue".

  Full Price!! I love this film, in my opinion if your not Irish and you dont like this film its probably because you dont understand the irish culture of comedy. I would recommend all people to go see this film.

  I saw this last week and was kind of disappointed. Brendan Gleeson is one of my favorite actors and the movie is done by the brother of Martin McDonagh, the writer and director of In Bruges. I liked the dialogue, but none of it was very original. The Philosophical drug dealers had a Guy Ritchie thing going on between them, and as much as I love Gleeson, I don't ever want to see him in his underwear ever again. Also some of the side stories, like Gleeson's dying mother, seemed like they could be taken out of the story.

   

  It's enjoyable, but by far not the greatest thing ever. It's a good Matinee.

  If he's seen so many movies before, how come he can't get actors' names right?
