    Not for everyone... but I really liked it

    I love Irish and Scottish movies... they have a certain thing going on. This is a bit scatty and all over the place but it has some really funny moments.. give it a bash!

    Uniquely Irish

    A very different movie with great one liners. Eg father to son 'the best part of you ran down my leg'.

    Hard to feel the tragedy it's so funny. But captures the small town and dysfunctional family brilliantly. A bit rough and at times shocking which made it all the more entertaining. Great acting too. Loved the scenery. Uniquely irish.
