Review of '71 (2014) by Gimly M — 13 Apr 2015
Intriguing possibilities unrealized was my feeling when I left the theater. The protagonist is a private in the British Army occuping Belfast in 1971. He gets lost and there's lots of shooting, some period cars, and really bad haircuts.
But as someone who lived through that awful haircut era, I wanted a lot more. The origins of the Irish apartheid and religious persection would have been a nice start, but not there. Barely worth the trip.
