Donnybrook

This film was extremely graphic. It had a little bit of everything wrong with The United States. It had incest, child murder, nazi's, drugs, poverty, violence, robbery and crooked cops. They way it was put together was beautiful and brutal at the same time. I'm glad I finally decided to give this film a shot. Hats off to the writer/director. Definitely a film worth checking out. I highly recommend giving it a watch. 6 stars.

Dark, sad and disturbing. Good acting. Frank grillo is a scary ass dude.

I am like hella confused as to why some people are saying this movie is crap and how movies are only meant to entertain when literally that is not what movies or any kind of art is all about! Movies can be emotional, gritty, and dark as well.

People are saying that this movie is too violent and dark and some people don't like that and that is fine, but that is literally the whole point of this movie. I'm probably gonna get some thumbs down for saying that but oh well!

The pacing of the movie was pretty good down to the characters, music, and the story. It's really great story about surviving in a world of extreme poverty while also living in the messed up world of meth cookers/dealers. Frank Grillo's character barely talked in this movie and I wasn't sure how I liked it at first, but overtime, I began to enjoy it. Grillo's character Angus has this dark and menacing outlook and is meant to strike fear and even shock in the audience as well as some of the characters. He's very controlling of his sister and is pretty psychotic to pretty much killing a whole bunch of people as well as forcing his sister to do things that are pretty messed up. But I felt as if that is literally the point.

There are a lot of drug movies/shows out there that I feel as if glorify the life of drug dealers, but this movie kind of gives a more honest perspective about how messed up it really is. And some people may say that a situation like this may never happen, and I think when they say that, they don't really know or understand the life of a drug dealer and what it does to the family dynamics, whether you are the addict or the dealer.

Overall, it was a good movie and I would watch it again.

Frank Grillo can be quite scary - or at least play scary and evil as good as anyone else can. Jamie Bell is really good in this too (and he needs to be with Grillos character overtaking and really being a menace and presence here), though for me I always remember Billy Elliott when I see him. Not his fault and as said, he is quite good in this, it is just the perception one sometimes has.

The movie is moody and dark. Some very bad things are happening to some good or at least rather innocent beings ... And all leads to the final fight! Quite literally also ... a Drama that does not hold back a punch and might challenge some viewers.

This movie is grim, dark, and depressing. That's OK, there is definitely a place for this sort of film. I was unfamiliar with the entire cast, but the acting was quite good, especially Margaret Qualley. Good photography and direction as well. Much of the violence, in the methhead tweaker community seemed quite pointless, which I suppose was the point. Hard to say whether I could recommend this film to anyone.
