Broken Law

Two brothers, one cop,one crook, just released from prison dives into crime, and by circumstantial incident runs into his brother in the aftermath of the crime...

well its an irish flick, that lets you taste asphalt and iti a small cast crimedrama of superfiscial caracter, its within the frames of the generic genre of crime, and its a story about poverty and broken homes in a country that never have seen real wealth anytime.and its a typical example that blood is thicker than you think and family comes first its a basic production where everything is plain and no more than that. plotstory has some surprises, and a real twist at the bitter end.so how to bribe a copper? well have a look yourself

the score of the film are pure irish, therefore pretty recommendable and well chosen songs, i still have trouble dehiffering some of the thick irish dialect, but its a small recommend from the grumpy old man

As an Irish person im well used to seeing Irish movies being overhyped by Irish film industry and press. And this movie isn't an exception. The script and actions / behaviours of the characters in this movie are beyond implausible. Its like it was written be a 12 year old child. Some dramatic scenes really created a high degree of tension indicating what this movie could have been instead of what it is. Bits and pieces hold your attention but lose it with a ridiculous plot.

A very good police/criminal/family, tripartite tangled web of lies and deceit and greed. First rate acting, first rate plot. A bit extreme as a story but then its the intention of a good drama to entertain and entertain this does. Well worth watching. Just sit back and enjoy.

A very well made movie, not the usual run of the mill story, very relatable and brilliant acting on a 150,000 budget.

It's great to be back at the cinema again, and what a great movie to mark my return. A brilliant cast particularly Graham Early and a cracking old fashioned plot kept me engaged til the very end. Two brothers on the opposite side of the law become involved in a robbery that goes wrong from different sides. Loyalty to family vs job vs friends is the decision that needs to be made. One fantastic scene in particular of the brothers bonding and reminiscing over a spliff. John Connors is usual charismatic self but I'd like to see him in a different type of role for a change. Good solud film making which is really well acted. Recommended.
