Comwayon A Disappointing Continuation

Connianatu How wonderful it is to see this fine actress carry a film and carry it so beautifully.

Charles Herold (cherold) Do really awful people have a strict moral code and deep conscience? I'm going to guess no, but In Bruges suggests writer/director Martin McDonagh might disagree.In Bruges begins with two guys checking into a hotel in Bruges. They have come to wait an unspecified amount of time to speak to someone. They go sightseeing. One man loves Bruges, the other finds it tedious.This is maybe the first third of the movie, which is sometimes amusing but doesn't give you much to hold onto. Then a flurry of things happen and an elaborate, ingenious story kicks in. And that part involves terrible people being shockingly full of scruples.The film is very well acted and generally amusing with some dark and occasionally suspenseful moments, yet I was never fully drawn in. The ingenuity of the story and moral code of the protagonists felt like dramatic devices rather than something that comes from real life experience. A false clever plot and unlikely characters is not inherently unworkable, and I think the problem is less the script than that McDonagh can't quite figure out how to flesh that script with human complexity (something he successfully did in "Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri.")I enjoyed this well enough, but I wouldn't say it's something you should seek out.

elenastolyarova Love it. Love it. Love it. Love it. A very British movie. Only Brits can pull off such great mix of comedy and sadness. And of course world renoun British humour. I will definitely watch it again.

Navod Wijesekara I was really surprised by the storyline because of the way the humour was also gathered up in a natural way. Really I Just wanted to say What I have said on the title; That's all... Really was expecting a comedy mixed crime, thriller but was pleasantly surprised with the Good story. Cheers From Sri Lanka. Would Like to visit bruges some day...

benjaminshaw-34988 Masterpiece. This is, very simply, an amazing film. I sat down to watch it for a creative writing class and found myself amazed by the incredible writing at work here.The plot is complex and can be very emotionally draining but it only serves to turn this film into an artistic beauty. Colin Farrell is perfect in this film. He plays a character somewhere in between desperate and lost and yet still finds a way to make you laugh. His best performance by far. Brendon Gleeson and Ralph Fiennes deserves a lot of credit as well as their performances absolutely blew me away.This is one of those films where everything is said and done and thought for a reason. Nothing, and I mean nothing, is done without purpose in this absolute sculpture of a film.P.S. I wouldn't suggest it for date night :l
