Review of Orphans

Orphans (1998)
10/10
An excellent mixture of the harrowing and the absurd.
26 April 1999
An honest movie, both funny and distressing. Each of the incidents in the film could stand as its own short movie. My only complaints are that the dialogue may be a bit difficult to understand for non-Glaswegians, and the violence is too quick for those brought up on Hollywood slow-mo. But then, in its rapidity and arbitrary nature, the violence is seen as truly horrific.
