Great movie,They forgot to mention parts were filmed in Skerries.

I need to have 150 characters to post ,so I will kust say bla bla bla a few times.

Brendan Gleason is great..bla bla.

Not a lot happens. Plot is thin but McPherson spreads it out nicely.

A nicely controlled and very competent debut feature. Manages to get beneath the skin of the script and make us feel for the piece. At times film transcends script and becomes something else entirely. Unfortunately it's all somewhat marred by McPherson taking it as read that viewer will understand more than he's telling us - eg What exactly was relationships between all male characters. Understand 2 were brothers but who exactly was blondie puke boy? Nice cast. Not sure what they were all doing in such a small movie which didn't quite transcend it's smallness.

Ending felt somewhat tacked on.

I enjoyed the way the film seemed to start the story a way into it. So often H'wood flicks hand feed you the story line, grossly pointing out every little plot point and character trait. I found the fact that every character wasn't well explained and that it almost felt like i was watching this family as a neighbor not knowing the whole story but finding it interesting nonetheless. I commented when i walked out that i felt the filmmaker respected my intelligence and ability to follow along. Some VERY funny moments and well worth the time.

Adapted from one of his own plays, Conor McPherson masterfully directs the cast in this tale of mischief and morality. The story centers around three male characters and how their brushes with deviant society in the form of rebellion, robbery, and infidelity lead back to the discovery of a higher moral context within life. The situations and dialogue are reminiscent of Kevin Smith's work with ambiguous fates for all three characters. I especially enjoyed the scene where Ray is finally given the opportunity to ask the visiting dignitary philosopher a question which will totally undermine the respected theory and a completely different and unexpected question comes up (trust me, you'll just have to see it). The only drawback to this film is that it was only released in Europe, so if you ever have the chance to see it, do yourself a favor and watch it. It would be a well spent 100 minutes of laughing!!!

You wouldn't have thought a film about an Irish chip shop having money troubles would make such a great film, this is a mini classic if I have seen one.

Great work and it is well deserved.

You'll laugh a lot and you'll probably be shocked at some parts also.
