The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
Sammy-Jo Cervantes
There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.
Mehdi Hoffman
There's a more than satisfactory amount of boom-boom in the movie's trim running time.

A hilarious new comedy set in Northern Ireland in the 90s.

This has to be one of the greatest shows of all time, gives a good insight on live in 90s Derry! Has some cracking jokes and the acting is impecable!
Its kind of like The Inbetweeners but without all the sex

A lot can happen in a 30 minute sit-com, and Derry Girls is no exception.
The comedy performances, writing and production is spot-on, slo-mo and steadycam shots of mundane action backed with awesome 90's choons (and Whigfield). I like it, maybe you will too.
Notable episodes are #3 and #4, when our gang chase the dead-ringer of Erin's dog, Toto, into church and to witness a miracle involving Our Sacred Lady investigated by a dashing Priest, and when the Children of Chernobyl visit Derry, which could take them out of the frying pan and into a different frying pan.
Great cast, some pretty decent character-driven humour (including the older generations) and an interesting take on the setting and period make for a great formula, not too burdened by PC or a political agenda.

The lead actress playing Erin is way too old for the part, 24/25? going on 16? its a pity because the writing is funny, the situations promising. ep 1 was a hoot but i found myself being more & more annoyed by 'Erin'. still, i'll stick with it, for the writing....
