Loved it. It didn't 'end' though any more then the other ones 'ended' which is curious considering they marketed it as the last ever.

I thought it was hilarious. A film in DB10 territory which is probably a true reflection on life in Dublin. Full of violence and what i call humour, it is a film my wife and i both enjoyed. In away it is a bit similar in style and content to the Guy Ritchie films. if you get a chance watch it.
Going to watch it this week I think...

:)
They talk a bit funny in Dublin so I hope you can understand them :oops:
Watched it last week - 7/10

Good film, very funny. Accents ok CB (seriously, much easier than the cork one :oops: :lol: )

Jim Broadbent after his beating and on the verge of being killed, falling asleep :coffeespit:

I saw this.

Some clever twists in the plot, and some unexplained bits too, but otherwise was not a good film. Script and acting were shoddy.

Instead, for a good British "Street" film with strong characters, see:

Went to see Saw 3D with my daughter last night, I thought it was quite good (my daughter's a Saw threak and she was also impressed)

I also finally got to see Inglourious Basterds, what a brilliant film, I loved it and Christoph Waltz who played Colonel Hans Landa was superb.

GET HIM TO THE GREEK.
It could be me, but I found it monotonous, boring and it felt so long. :banghead:
Maybe the MTV generation amongst us might enjoy it.
