    The movie finds charming humor in a world full of sectarian strife between Protestant and Catholic.

    This late-in-the-year gem glows with Levinson's characteristically warm embrace of a wide range of people and his superlative sense of time and place.

    A laugh-filled comedy that might be described as "The Full Monty" meets the Three Stooges.

    This wee trinket of a comedy, one of the more offbeat stabs at capturing the absurdity of the religious and political strife in Ireland, is for those who like their Guinness with a shot of wry.

    A slight but diverting series of set pieces.

    It's a sprightly, low-fiber comedy while the comedy lasts.
