Cardboard Gangsters (2017)
A loud film with plot holes
Music seems to be what the film relies on at times to give a kick to the audiences attention. Not a bad film just think it's probably for a younger audience. Nice to see a film breaking away from the bleak Irish films we are more accustomed to. They don't play safe and it paid off.
The Old Man & the Gun (2018)
A great trailer, not so great film.
Some enjoyable moments but more so enjoyable as it's two we'll know aging actors and it's nice to see them doing their thing but unfortunately they are not as powerful on screen as they once were. Enjoyable
The Dig (2018)
Good low budget film
Nice to see Irish films like this. Interesting plot and acting was quite good. The film is slow but if you allow yourself to go with it it is a very pleasant experience. Good Irish film.
Black '47 (2018)
Not very historical but enjoyable
This film seemed to be promised as a famine epic or the Irish braveheart. I'm not sure why. It's a rehash of a western revenge film with the Irish famine used as a backdrop.
The acting is strong. The film is enjoyable . The plot has a lot of holes but it's easy to forgive this as the famine as its backdrop grips the heart strings. Enjoyable.
