RipDelight This is a tender, generous movie that likes its characters and presents them as real people, full of flaws and strengths.

Keeley Coleman The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

Philippa All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

Phillipa Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

jujucuzel When I bought this movie,it was in a secondhand shop and you know the quality of the plot of the movie which are in this kind of place. I was nicely surprising. On the one hand,the characters are very lovable and we can recognized ourselves in them but on the other hand I truly think it is a shame that it is always the same landscapes,the same situation and the same people,while it puts us ill at ease with them. In my way of thinking the plot isn't well-thought but if but if you have got 2 hours of your life to loose it's the perfect movie. There are too much vegetation and too much flashy colors,it reminds me of the Jungle Book. Whereas it is well framed and the background is pretty and realistic. However the acting is not really convincing because of the choice of the actors which wasn't very appropriate and thorough and I think that is why the actors are not famous now. Even if it is strange,it is still a funny movie,indeed I watched it with my friends and we really had a good time. The film was unremarkable and my opinion is really lukewarm but the thing which made me enjoy this movie is the scene when Mickael is naked on his motorbike,I do not want to spoil you but you must know that I replayed this scene again and again,it was so funny actually,even the last time! So I'm glad to know this movie and I invite you to watch it with a good friend because with your parents, it could be very awkward!

Team6 My best friend recommended it to me and she lent me the DVD. At the beginning,the poster didn't inspire me but then, I loved it right from the first scene. Very often, I couldn't stop laughing because the scenes and the characters were humorous. Some parts of the story are extremely comical but also unlikely for example when Mickael pretends to be Ned while he has never lied. All the actors are very talented and play their parts very well. We see very united, cheerful and friendly villagers especially the two main characters, they are very close and they are like brothers; it is a moving picture. I also think the plot is original : the idea of the lottery is a good one. It is funny and unlikely for young or old people. The characters are very friendly and always cheerful and I think the way they achieve their goal is funny even if some parts are a bit strange - and moving because everything ends like what Ned would have wished. There is a love story between Maggie and Finn, the farmer, but according to me it is not interesting and kitsch. Tullymore is a typical Irish village, we can discover different places : the moor, the sea, the forest, the cliffs... It is very representative of Irish setting. According to me, you can watch this movie with your family and I found it entertaining. You will find a lot of surprises all along the film and you will really feel the characters are your friends. Finally, I was crazy about the moral of the plot, because I think it is very instructive to say "money doesn't bring us happiness".

KKrastin Although this film was actually filmed in the UK, it was set to be in Ireland and has maintained the Irish flavor and humor.This film poses the question about "What would you do?" if you were finding out that one of your best friends had died, after dying from shock that he had just won the Lottery.They go through a series of decision making and antics to pull off what they finally decide to do. Especially for those that enjoy British/Irish humor in other movies, you will definitely be pulling up to the movie with a fresh batch of popcorn for this one.

ajgonzalez576 Waking Ned Divine is an great film in which the story line can be put into any type of culture and scenario. This movie brings a world on a comedy in with the of excitement and drama. The actors in this film really complemented each other. None better than jackie oshea , a fun loving personality that you cant resist his charm.This is movie is based a fun loving little town tuck away from any city life. so people in the town all know each other and its rare that anything really goes on with out someone knowing eachothers business.
