A little Irish gangsterish film. Worth a look if you liked In Bruges. It's not as good as In Bruges and it is a bit uneven, but the acting is good (Jim Broadbent as a foul-mouthed Irishman is a hoot and Brendan Gleeson, of In Bruges, does well) and it is entertaining, if not a classic. A worthy rental but I wouldn't spring for owing it outright. Available on BD (which is how I watched it) as well as DVD.
