SnoReptilePlenty Memorable, crazy movie

Mjeteconer Just perfect...

Neive Bellamy Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

Yazmin Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.

col-macara It's as simple as that: take your classic heist movie, an Irish context, lots of unexpected situation and a real Murphy's law rampage.The movie is fine, entertaining, with a handful of punchlines that made me laugh.Acting is more than good, with veterans alongside young, very young and child actors all doing a great job.This is not a masterpiece nor will never become a cult, it's just a nicely made funny wee movie you won't regret watching.Have a pint, sit back and enjoy it.

milzo1986 From start to finish an impossible to believe story, a title that really has nothing to do with the plot, bad accents, worse acting and really poor direction from Terry George.The lines delivered are almost forced, when Jimbo is trying to cajole the babysitter with "Twenty-five pounds", delivered straight out of a speech and drama school, it's as though they were ashamed of being from Belfast. Very poor editing, Jimbo runs around a corner from the antiques shop on a sunny Downpatrick afternoon into a deary Ormeau Road.Just really awful stuff, an hour and a half of my life that I'm not going to get back.

P.S. Paaskynen This film is an attempt to make a British crime comedy for an American audience. It gets off to a promising start (if we disregard the wholly unnecessary exposition explaining why Brendan Fraser's character left the United States). The three main story lines are introduced and succeed in raising interest in the protagonists, but as more and more superfluous side characters are drawn into it, the plot starts to unravel. Yaya Dacosta turns into a cardboard cutout placed in the scenes to present stock reactions in the background. What little chemistry existed between her and Fraser evaporates in the silliness of what are supposed to be plot twists. Fraser and McCann had no spark to begin with. Really, this film is carried between Colm Meaney and Michael Legge.

Loverboy58 Brendan Fraser wasted his talents with this piece of junk movie. If it was meant to be funny, It's not. Whoever wrote the screenplay needs to go back to college to take a few more writing courses. Plain and simple. This movie sucks. Brendan's career has been with ups and downs with he is a very good actor. The movie companies haven't given him credit for his talents. But in this movie his talents were used in a very wasteful manner. He is better than that. Again, wasted talent in the part of Brendan Fraser. He needs to choose his roles better. I am glad this movie was on DVD and not on the theaters. It would have been a waste of money. Again, Brendan Fraser is a great actor but his role in this movie sucks.
