Reviews
Hollywood Reporter - Just when you think you've seen every possible variation on the hit-man genre, Irish playwright Martin McDonagh in his feature debut has fashioned an audacious combination of Old World grace and modern ultraviolence
Additional Information
Playwright Martin McDonagh makes an impressive feature film debut as the writer and director of this tragicomedy that is as rich, dark, and complex as Belgian chocolate. The story unfolds over the course of a few days, as Irish hitmen Ken (the appealingly bear-like Brendon Gleeson, KINGDOM OF HEAVEN) and Ray (Colin Farrell, MIAMI VICE, in a loose and sympathetic performance) are ordered to lay low in the tourist-laden town of Bruges, Belgium, after a bungled shooting. Their only directive is to stay grounded and wait for further orders from crime boss Harry (Ralph Fiennes, THE CONSTANT GARDENER, gleefully playing evil), but both underlings--nervous and delightfully talky--chafe with the waiting. The childlike Ray is inconsolably agitated and withdrawn, and after a time we learn that his restlessness is borne of something deeper and more disturbing than mere ADD. The more paternal and patient of the duo, Ken, takes the opportunity to enjoy Bruges's lush, buttressed beauty, but he, too, undergoes some soul-searching by the movie's end.<BR>The plot snakes cleverly (and at times touchingly) around flashbacks of the murder as the garrulous killers philosophise and interact with locals and tourists, including an acerbic American dwarf, the owner of the B and B, Dutch prostitutes, and a local enchantress. McDonagh's absurdist black humour asserts itself as hilarious dialogue and dreamlike visuals (supported by Carter Burwell's unsettling score) that shift seamlessly from sweet to grotesque, like a Grimm's fairytale come to the big screen. McDonagh's command of the film medium, which he first demonstrated with the Oscar-winning short film SIX SHOOTER, puts to rest any reservations about playwrights-turned-directors. Viewers will enjoy the crackling banter, vibrant performances, and beautiful scenery.

    Dark chocolate humour with engaging characters

    This is a black comedy, so needs to be approached with that in mind, it is an 18 rating for good reason and in this reviewers opinion the back story was unnecessarily dark and tragic and not a good base for comedy, but moving beyond that, the characters were engaging and entertaining and the film progressed at a good pace. Visiting Brugges before viewing as this reviewer did (its the perfect 2 or 3 day city break location) really helped in understanding the conflicting views of the main characters, but that is is not essential providing the viewer goes with the flow of the story. Overall very entertaining and watchable performances by all of the cast members, working slightly outside of the types of roles they are more usually associated with, while the old city of Brugges plays an ...

  • Unusual film.

    Slow startthe actors work well together { surprisingly } If you like Colin Ferrell if action films then you might be a little disappionted. It's still worth a look but for me it is not one i would keep watching.

  • ln Bruges - Father Ted meets Psycho

    A bleak, hugely entertaining, blackest of black tragi-comedies. Not for the feint hearted or over sensitive. Two lrish gunmen have bungled a hit on the main land and their boss has sent them to Bruges to hide out, at least that's what they think.... The two have a Ted and Dougal friendship, and although you can see some of the jokes coming a mile off, they're still funny. The finale takes a very unepected turn, both tragic and optimistic. Remember this is a very "adult film", don't complain if it upsets you.

  • Strange film.

    I may have to watch it again as I might have missed something. not a great storyline but has to be worth buying it for the restaurant scene where one of the main characters kicks-off with an American. Brilliant, my wife asked me to replay it several times. Lots of swearing and violence, and in fairness good acting.
