Review of In Bruges (2008) by Ross L — 27 Oct 2012
An instant classic. Absolutely brilliant. A sharply written, terrifically performed and excellently crafted film. A killer comedy loaded with great action, outrageous laughs and strong performances. Great, witty and marvelous characters.
Colin Farrell is terrific, showing a very funny and compelling character, he hasn't been this good in years. Brendan Gleeson is fantastic. Gleeson and Farrell are the best odd-couple hitmen team since Samuel L.
Jackson and John Travolta in Pulp Fiction, bringing very great chemistry to the screen. Ralph Fiennes is magnificent, stealing the show in ways only he can. These guys have such unique, gut-busting and very funny chemistry.
A wickedly cool, original and very fun flick that you will love from beginning to end. It is actually a pretty strong film that has emotional effect and tragedy in a darkly comic atmosphere. A stylish, thrilling and action-packed film.
Plenty of flat-out enjoyment that never lets up. It's Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels meets The Matador.
