2 words to describe be this film : Feckin’ Shakespearean
What i love about these two, is how they just tell it how it is. Other spoiler channels, beat around the Bush to much. And drag things out. These two also make me laugh. Which is a breath of fresh air.
Well this is the perfect channel when you’ve just seen a movie and are still processing it…and you want to discuss the movie or think about it or what have you.
I just had the opposite thought. I am new to this channel and I feel the amount to time these two spend in narrating the story itself is annoying. We come to a review to hear about a reviewer's thoughts about the movie, not to hear a re-telling.
@@SappyDamy thoughts exactly. This review was the worst. I really hope no one judges this movie by this review
When you take a step back this movie is crazy as hell, but the themes are correct. It plays like a theater production. It’s cool. If you have lost friendships this film can teach you a lesson. Colin Farrell playing this lonely isolated and creepy man I can see y he’s getting awards recognition.
I just watched this and enjoyed it. Padriac went through several stages before his dissent to what seemed like madness. I totally understood Colm's wanting to focus on his music, but I couldn’t understand how he found time to chat with the jerk officer. I suppose it wasn’t like he was spending all of his spare time with him, but it seemed odd.
This film is very reflective of life and friendships in general. It’s like outgrowing things that no longer serve you. The problem is the people you outgrow feel rejected.
I give it 4/5. The acting, writing and cinematography was really good. I agree with the ending not what I wanted but I guess that’s life. Maybe it’ll leave room for a sequel? Lol
You don't get men from an older generation maybe? The ending was clearly a happy one. Body language and a few words indicated that A) Colm realized he wants to live, thanks to the close brush with death, he has hit his rock bottom, and will only get better b) he says he's REALLY sorry about the donkey which means he cares for Pádraic C) Pádraic clearly cares when he says he don't (as a response) D) By saying he will look after his dog "anytime", Pádraic indicates he will be there for Colm. The End. These guys' friendship has been restored. Colm's depression will be in remission.
A bad haircut is one of Joseph's biggest triggers.☺️
In Bruges is a favorite of mine! Love the director and the way he works with these actors. Will watch. Thank you for this review.
Barry Keoghan is the most interesting character in the movie. I wanted to know more about him. The movie misses him towards the end. Barry Keoghan's performance is the best I've seen in any movie this year. Best Supporting Actor Oscar please. I agree that the final third isn't as good. Once the Brendan Gleeson character removes his fingers for the second time the movie has become even darker and there's no resolution to the quarrel. In fact it's the opposite - Colin Farrell's character has become full of bitterness towards his old friend and there's an escalation in the conflict that you feel will only end when one of them is dead. By that stage the fabulous comedy from the earlier part of the movie has gone. I love the two great very funny scenes in the confessional box in the local church in particular.
I think "no resolution to the quarrel" is the whole point
A few weeks ago, Brendan Gleeson hosted SNL, and Colin Farrell popped on stage during the monologue. You could feel the warmth, camaraderie, and friendship between them. A thought I had about the movie, which I am definitely going to see, are the feelings one has when your close, best friend starts to move on for no apparent reason, as this most often happens growing up. Perhaps, it is an actual physical move to a new location, and you slowly lose touch. Perhaps, the friend finds new interests and a new group. Perhaps, you have changed without realizing it. This is the sadness I felt, when I viewed trailers and articles on the movie. Your review was excellent, and am so looking forward to seeing it.
i loved this so much! depressing and funny and cute and disturbing all at the same time
"Your finger killed my donkey"
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
His finger chocked his ass
Your fat fingers killed me donkey* hahaha
Dominick seemed to be on the spectrum. Extra rich performance from that actor. I thought the film mirrored the senseless never ending civil war that was going off in the distance.. RIP Jenny.
They did not talk about how hilariously funny this film is. I laughed throughout as did the rest of the audience. Perhaps because I have an Irish family and saw this in the UK. Mark Kermode talks about this.
they probably dont, like, laugh at things
My partner is from Northern Ireland. I want to see this with him. :)
They do though 🧐
I love the way you tell the plot. Had to pause at the donkey choking on a finger. I'm on the floor wheezing. Also wouldn't a musician need their fingers? Maybe you address that later. 🤣
That was the point. Is colins character cared about brendans then he wouldnt force him to cut his fingers off as he NEEDS them to be happy. But he ends up disregaring it anyway lol
He's depressed, the futility of depression.
@@seanmcmanus3033 Patrick didn't think for a minute that Colm would actually cut his finger off. He didn't think he'd cut them off a second time either. Patrick is a little bit thick and sees the bright side.
Well that was just it he was so determined not to talk to Colin’s character anymore he was fully willing to deprive himself of doing the thing he loved most if it came to that.
What an excellent comment. Thank you so very much! 🙏🏽♥️
Do you guys think that Padric is gay? or at least that Padric is ok with substitute an ordinary straight relationship with a deeper relationship with Colm? An enigma for me is why Colm has this tactic where he cuts of his fingers. He says he'd rather play and compose than to continue with his relationship with Padric, but it doesn't make sense to cut off his fingers to achieve this. It just removes the possilibity to achieve his hope. A hint about the possible gay theme here is the confession scene where the priest asks Colm if he has sinful thoughts about men. Both men reject this with a stereotypically masculine reaction, which could indicate a lie.
Padric obviously loves Colm. Colm loves music, and sacrifices his love for music by cutting off his fingers.
I love the way you guys mix the characters and actors names. Ex. Dominic and Colin. Loved the movie and enjoyed your review.
I definitely have to find time to watch this when it comes out.
Having family involved in this conflict i think the fight between friends is a metaphor for the irish civil war that occured at the same time this film was set
Just saw this tonight. It was very cute and very funny. Well written and acted. Thank you for yalls review!
that still looks like Frau Blucher \ Cloris Leachman
why cut off your fingers if all you want to do is write/play music? I know it's probably a metaphor like cutting off your nose to spite your face blah blah blah but no, sorry I can't with the obvious missing logic.
:) I like your remarks on the "village idiot" running joke - I mean, why does it matter? Like, a "no man is an island" vibe - about isolationization and interconnectedness issues. To me, your comments point to Brandon's character being 'depressed' as his self-harm clashes with the musician part he's extolling. Joseph: "I would do anything to be just left alone" and yes, that character "showed despair" ;D Deep black comedy, right there I guess:)
Always love your reviews but this one was particularly awesome! I felt so sad after watching this movie so good to "process" with you two!
This was my favorite movie from last year. Of course I don’t watch as many as you guys! So enjoy your channel. Thanks for your work.
This movie has such funny moments and a lot of Irish banter, but it's also so dark. I loved this film but I do have bias because Ireland is the motherland. My family moved to Australia to escape the troubles from Belfast.
Excited to watch! I loved In Bruges and had high hopes for this. Looks beautifully shot. Thanks for the review as always!
It wasn’t “and then nothing” Collin’s character changes. The other guy wakes up too late.
Found you both after Jamari highlighted your Bro’s review. Great content fellas. New sub!!!
thanks, the colored hair threw me off too, not historical and added nothing to the movie's themes
Liked this more than Seven Psychopaths
You had me at "7 Psychopaths"!!!! If THAT was the guy's debut, then I'll probably love everything he ever does, lol.
Sounds good. The other day I watched a review you did where you mentioned the film, The Woman. Very powerful and the end was perfect! I was cheering her on!
"The Woman" directed by Lucky McKee is so damm good. Pollyanna MacIntosh, who plays the woman, can on be called the true final girl. Loved the ending!
What is this movie??!?😭 it’s so sad and real.
In the title
What's up with all these movies that have no ending?
'We won't call it quits we'll call it the start'. So the ending is just the beginning really.
sorry, but i dont like this movie
I just started this today, it started off a little slow but it’s getting better. I’ll finish it tomorrow, but I’m here for spoilers.
lol eyerolls at 14:05
Hey, you mentioned THE WHALE...why haven't you guys done a review ot that movie? Please do...thanks
I really want to see this!!
Just watched it. Very original premise.
Eh. It was fine, looked beautiful
Could Collin Farrel's character have killed Dominic, since he was "the new him" and he's forgoing his "nice guy" persona? Not to mention he's got beef with Dominic's father, would that be revenge of some sort?
I didn't get that vibe. I felt that the tipping point for Dominick was Colin's sister leaving the island after that (brilliant and absolutely heartbreaking) scene where he confesses his love to her and she rejects him (very compassionately though). You feel the last of his dreams die, he's left isolated in this neurotic town with nothing to look forward to but a future of brutal and visible beatings (as well as the implied SA) by this absolute sadist of a father whom he'll unfortunately have to be dependent on for the rest of his life, and just decides to end it.
Collin's transformation isn't into this evil persona, and definitely not indiscriminately mean as his grievance is very much targeted towards Gleeson; what he becomes is bitter, which is pretty much the antithesis of the hopelessly cheerful, good natured guy who we met at the beginning. He seemed to be the only truly character who was truly content with his simple life at the start of the film. Gleeson's depression and existential dispair, which -as we later see discussed in other scenes (like one of the confessionals with the priest) goes beyond whatever Farrell's useless ramblings were, and seem to get progressively worse as the movie progresses...a darkness that he's also surrendered into and confesses to not even willing or able to fight it. IMO the only one who gets a real shot at happiness and fulfillment is Siobhan by being the only one who dares to step away.
I think it's obvious by my involuntary essay above that this movie has really stayed on my mind since watching it, lol. Conpletely blindsided me too cause I'm such an insufferable cynic. All these themes seem so heavy yet they're told with humor and warmth and lightness and compassion. Having watched almost all of the year's Best Picture Oscar contenders (haven't gotten around to "Avatar 2"), I think this might be my fave.
Looking forward to this ... didn't like Three Billboards but did like In Bruges
Love the new intro!
Like your reviews very much! Nick..you may want to use the correct Irish pronunciation of both Colm (Collem) and Padraic.(sounds like Porrick)
Irish pronunciation of Colm is Cullum … the movie makes the mistake of calling Colm Kahl un …… 🤨
So colin and his friend were gay ? And in love
I have always found Martin McDonagh infuriating. His 'darkly' comic tales have proved him to be a one-trick pony. There's always a village idiot. There's always an unfeasible feud. There's always comic-book violence. Worse still, more often than not, it's always a deeply prejudice caricature of Irish people and his ill-perceived notion of their 'culture'. He's made millions out of degrading and exporting this 'paddy' culture. His movies always have the finest of actors, but as the old adage goes, you can't polish a turd.
McDonagh has two Irish parents and spent much of his youth in Ireland.
I'm Irish.. This is the culture .... Especially in the 1920s and especially in the West.
@@paulmcgrath6118 Irish too; I just detest his movies and plays. All subjective, eh? :)
I don’t know how anyone liked this movie probably the worst movie I have ever watched
The Irish civil war was not between the Free state and the IRA.
yes it was
WTF...
Nick: She portends death
Joseph: She seemed like fun!
I am totally baffled...I just watched this movie and found it extremely depressing.
It won a Golden Globe for Best Picture in "Musical or Comedy"
Mostly, I want to express that your review really focused on the surface aspects, but there was SO MUCH symbolism-regarding the nature of the Civil War and of Irish folklore. That is why it ended the way it did...
Sounds so depressing...enough sadness in the world.....not for me
Just spoil every aspect of the 📽️
I am going to watch this movie after this review but for the love of God can we stop making movies about white men? I mean there is so many stories to be told about people of color. Women of color. How about making a movie starring Sheryl Lee Ralph or more movies about Frida Kahlo or La Malinche. Enough of the white middle aged experience already. 🙄
Feck off ... There were no black men on the Aran Islands! It's not a out white men ... It's about depression, loneliness and friendship. The last time I looked these are issues that affect all skin colours!
youre weird
ungodly racist, hope tyou soak
It’s set in Ireland at the time of their civil war FFS - what a stupid comment. 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄
