A Film with Me in It (2010)

Best movie of this year hands down!

This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.

As somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.

There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

I found myself watching this movie, alone in bed, eating popcorn, hungover like a beach towel on a Tuesday night.Incredible.. 3 people and a dog and a police woman died in a flat from horrific freak accidents.. all in a matter of minuets, it's not funny but why am I laughing? Uncontrollable. Lots of twists, great film, well good enough. Love Dylan Moran, I hope to one day marry a man just like himself. Eight out of Ten stars for 'a film with me in it' please enjoy as much as I indeed did.Make sure to check out my list of movies to watch - recommended by myself. if you like this you are bound to enjoy the other titles in the list on my profile.

Mark Doherty not only stars in this film, he wrote it. I cannot imagine a mind that conceived of this. It is so bizarre that it is hilarious.We are talking two losers, Mark (Doherty) and his friend Pierce (Dylan Moran). Mark is faced with a series of accidents that leave him utterly incapable of action. He turns to Pierce, who just makes things worse.This film is not laugh-out-loud funny, but it is hilarious. Of course, you have to see the humor , not in the tragedies that occur, but in the response to it by Mark and Pierce.Amy Huberman was excellent in her role as Mark's girlfriend, leaving us wanting more in her short role.

This black comedy is a story of Pierce (Dylan Moran) and Mark (Mark Doherty), two jobless Irish friends sharing a run down apartment with Mark's girlfriend Sally (Amy Huberman), and Mark's disabled brother David (David O'Doherty). The apartment is owned by a disgruntled Jack (Keith Allen). The movie suddenly takes a turn for the worse one day in their uneventful and eroding lives.The movie really takes the very definitive yet subtle elements of black comedy and ties it together with very interesting plot twists. Although no comparison can be made, for the sake of a relative scale- A Film with Me in It is abreast with some of the blackest comedy works of the Coen Brothers (such as Burn After Reading, Barton Fink and The Man Who Wasn't There).The movie tends to drag a little here and there, but makes up for it in the fine character development and cinematography. As the plot progresses, the viewer is often subtly taunted to question their understanding of the story so far.I'm a fan of Dylan Moran's stand-up work, and he has lived up to my expectations of him on the screen as well. All in all, it's definitely a good watch.

Actually with a title like that and after the first few minutes you will catch the drift. The question if you will like were this is going or not, will depend on how much you like "dark humor". If you have seen quite a few of those movies, than you might anticipate quite a few things that will happen.Still it is done very good, many jokes are really exciting and the movie ends very well. One of the things that stuck out though, was the fact that this movie is Irish. Which means the guys playing this have a very unusual accent (for me and I'm sure for quite a few other guys), which also means, that I had some trouble getting every little thing that was said.The (inevitable) American Remake will come surely, but before that, make sure to watch this original!
