Wonderful character development!
Good idea lost in the noise
The movie runs out of plot and jokes well before the end of a two-hour running time, long for a light comedy.
A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.
Previously having mixed opinions on this film before I watched, I've got to say it surprised me with its originality and fun characters. This movie quite certainly proves Martin McDonagh is one of the best directors out there, and whenever he makes a film (which is not so often), he does it in style. Unique and somewhat strange storytelling, mixed with great performances from Colin Farell, Sam Rockwell, Woody Harrelson and Christopher Walken, is what makes this one of the best British (by a British director) movies. Although, if you're asking me, it felt different than Three Billboards and In Bruges (which is in a good way, and empshasizing McDonagh's wide range of ideas and expressions). Underrated and not much discussed, I would definitely recommend this movie, which pretty much has a little bit of everything.DISCLAIMER : Everything stated in this review is entirely matter of personal opinion and doesn't have to coincide with the opinions of other reviewers
Its impressive. the main character's name is a martin faranan, so director and writer. i like that, i like martin faranan mcdonagh.
I feel this is a movie that when revisited several times, you will see and hear something different each time. Loved Sam Rickwell's Character and the concept of the film is unique.
Gave up on this after twenty five minutes or so. Big cast, speaking dumb lines. You know they are meant to be funny because of the pitch (psychopaths etc) but there is no wit in this script which is limp as wilted lettuce. Trying hard to be Tarantino but without whatever substance he can manage to imbue in his characters. Just seemed pointless sticking with it.
