What a year for Colin Farrell. Banshees of Inisherin, After Yang, The Batman and Thirteen Lives. Stellar in all of them

[@brandy9656]

13 Lives is so underrated!

[@nasirjones580]

@@brandy9656 i think it so underrated because it pales in comparison with the documentary.

[@lydia1634]

This story couldn't have taken place in another time, because 1923 Ireland is absolutely a necessary context. The Irish Civil War was really frustrating. People who'd fought together to win Ireland's freedom were suddenly at war. The actual reasons had to do with who accepted the treaty that made Northern Ireland part of England and who rejected it. No one really won, though the stalemate resulted in the treaty being accepted after all. It was absolutely needless violence where best friends turned on each other overnight. So, yeah. The vistas and technology aren't really the reason to pick 1923.

[@Funkirse]

On the same day I watched this film, my boyfriend said he didn't love me anymore. He continued being happy, but I just wasn't part of his happiness anymore. "But you liked me yesterday ?" The incomprehension, denial, distress, anger, despair, resignation. You start questioning who you are. All the emotions I went through were so beautifully depicted in the film, with great accuracy. It truly blew me away.

[@edenjets]

😂💥

[@marysmyth8687]

As an Irish person, I can tell you that the movie is filmed on the most beautiful place in Ireland. Achill Ireland, Co Mayo. My favourite place in the world. You can drive onto it from the mainland. There are also shots from Inishmore, one of the Aran Islands off the coast of Galway.

[@jayceewriter7826]

Agree in full. My ex is from Mayo and I was blessed to spend many many beautiful times in Achill. Lucky to fall in love in Achill. It’s truly the last stop before heaven. Also I attended NUIG and got to Aran many times. Again beautiful beyond. I went to mass at the church in Inishmore.

[@alobo9937]

Breathtaking.

[@LeninhawkD]

Saw this last night. I think the film taking place at the time of the Irish Civil War is also key to understanding its purpose, themes, and messaging. I didn't let the fact that no one else in my (small) audience was laughing keep me from laughing heartily and often, as this is quite the funny film.

[@vivaciousom5347]

Same here.

[@tmontes1974]

I laughed through the whole thing, I've got 10 fingers to prove it😊.

I wasn't able to process it. The instant it ended I though it was one of the best movies I'd ever seen. Rarely, if ever, does a movie hit me that quickly.

[@uosdwiSrdewoH]

I love seeing Colin Farrell finally getting the appreciation he's been due for many years with so many projects coming at the same time as well as the upcoming Penguin series. It's long overdue but we'll deserved.

[@edwardnigma6963]

I was definitely one of those “this film is not for everyone” types. I found it depressing, and did not like it for my own personal entertainment; but can also appreciate it as a wonderful and artistically attractive film. That’s entirely possible. I didn’t like many great films the first time I watched them; but it also might just be that I wanted something more cheerful considering what I’ve gone through as of lately.

[@Nanku42]

Well put Its a very well made, beatifully shot, well acted , deep themes but i hated it, too depressing, dark, tedious. No reedenable qualities imo.

[@drquack1217]

[@mnoir7257]

We aren't always in the right place for a film and thats ok. We must also remember that not all films are meant to be "enjoyable". Sometimes great films can be uncomfortable and that can make it feel tedious to some. I think films are the perfect place to explore the dark, depressing, and tedious aspects of life. As we get to see beyond our own experiences and hopefully make us more well rounded and empathetic people.

[@ElrondHubbard_1]

It just didn't interest me. Seems implausible. I didn't last long.

[@magdlynstrouble2036]

I felt blindsided and betrayed by this movie. I found the beginning to be great, the scenery so beautiful, the characters charming, the comedy laugh out loud funny, and then it gets SO dark and actually silly (chop off 5 fingers and just go out to the pub??). And then the little beloved donkey chokes to death on top of it all! It was hurtful, gut-punching, harsh, devastating, too much, after such a fun beginning. Ugh. I was angry and upset.

[@mkeerkens]

I think what makes this film so moving is that the story is a microcosmic mirror to the Irish Civil War that is raging right across the bay from them, where fellow Irishmen go from kin to enemies overnight, who are harming themselves (like cutting their fingers off) in their fight to banish each other. So many layers of meaning in this movie come from the references to the war. That's why we end with the two man standing on the beach talking about the war, and about how there are wounds you can't come back from, which is so deeply sad. I just saw it and can't stop thinking about it, even getting teary eyed. Colin Farrell deserves an Oscar for his performance. That first scene where he gets rejected, the look of bewildered hurt in his face was heart-wrenching.

[@patrickpilkington6241]

Kerry Condon MUST win the Oscar for this one. She’s so incredible in this.

[@chrisszyyy]

Mike “pop pop” Ehmentraut approves of this

[@Doogle999]

[@leonarddorr9240]

saw it last night and still going through an emotional roller coaster - not sure whether to laugh or cry. The acting of the four main characters was outstanding and the bleakness and beauty of the scenery perfectly matched the mood of the movie. masterful piece of writing and filmmaking

[@deveshsood6087]

Saw it last week. Don't think I've ever seen another film quite like it, but I thought it was absolutely terrific

[@sama2086]

Colin Farrell and Brendan Gleeson were great as expected. But Kerry Condon genuinely blew me away, really hope she gets atleast a nomination at the oscars.

😂 I was calling it “The Bee Gees & Ed Sheeran”. Finally saw this masterpiece. It has instantly become one of my fav films of all time. Give this film all the feckin’ accolades, it is the epitome of an instant classic. “That’s right. The epitome!”

Watched the first showing at my theater yesterday. Absolutely wonderful film. Some of the best performances of the year backed by a script that’s saying so much with such a basic premise. Only way I could appreciate it more is if I were Irish or had some subtitles, cause boy those accents were thick.

I have been to Inis Mór where the movie was filmed and it is like stepping into the past. I have seldom seen such beautiful scenery. This is what really sells the movie to me. The suspension of disbelief is instant and everyone involved does their best to keep it that way. Hope this one gets recognized during the award season

[@marysmyth8687]

More shots are filmed on Achill Island, Co Mayo. Best place in Ireland

[@gallowglass2630]

They are hoping the film will bring tourism to the island of achill the other island used and probably most of the shots.Inishmore however is already a big tourist draw whereas Achill isn't as much well it is domestically but not really a draw for international tourists until now.

[@StewartFletcher]

Was absolutely flabbergasted by how good this movie was. 40 minutes in, I was like "this is good. Quaint and not quite up to Three Billboards quality, but good". By the end however, I was stunned by how great and meaningful this movie is

[@michaelz9892]

Three Billboards was lousy.

[@gotchuentertainment]

I truly think this is a great film that everybody who’s inclined should take the time to go out and see. Having said that, I don’t know if this was anybody else’s experience but it left me feeling rather hopeless, and for that I cannot forgive it. (And if you’ve seen the film you’ll know why that’s actually kind of ironic)

[@defur45]

Finally watched it last night and I really liked it. I haven't stopped thinking about it. The story hits really close to home at the moment, and it made me feel better.

[@isaacrichter3269]

Saw this at TIFF and absolutely loved it! I'm not ready to call it McDonagh's best film, as In Bruges exists, but it's very close, and I'm really hoping Colin Farrel's Best Actor win at the Venice Film Festival translates to an Oscar nomination (a win may be tricky with Brendan Fraser and Austin Butler in the mix, but it's not impossible). This and The Menu were my two favorite films from TIFF.

[@Slugthing]

I also saw this at TIFF. Probably the best crowd I could’ve seen it with.

[@electricark5065]

As much as I love In Bruges, I would say pretty quickly that this is my new favourite. It hews a lot closer to the slightly lower stakes of McDonagh's theatre work, there's less of a reliance on the shock value of Ray's crudeness, as he's a prick to everyone around him, and I'd argue that the editing and mise-en-scene is even more well crafted in Banshees (even though In Bruges is unquestionably gorgeous). Both are brilliant, but I know which one I'm going to be recommending to friends first

[@andrewreed4924]

In Bruges has a great script, but Banshees is a much better film as a whole. Just on another level entirely in terms of direction, cinematography, music/editing, etc.

[@julianhaefs3883]

Unfortunately it doesn't hit theaters in Germany until next year, but I am very much looking forward to it! Love McDonagh's work, thank you for this review

As an Irish person it made it that much more enjoyable to watch as its quite relatable. It is very similar to the routine a lot of older Irish people have out in villages and some towns.

Hi Dan. Thanks for reviewing this one (was worried you wouldn't) I saw this a couple weeks ago at my local cinema here in Co. Kerry, Ireland 🇮🇪 Film is excellent and I was genuinely curious what people outside of Ireland would think of it. I got a laugh out of you saying places like in the movie don't exist today but anyone who's been to the Aran islands in Galway would disagree 😄

[@freefallingband]

One extra layer I loved about this movie is the parallel between Padraig and Colm and the Irish Civil War. Two parties that were once very fond of each other end up disagreeing to the point of violence and hurting everyone around them. Glad so many other people like the film as it's VERY Irish. Probably too much so for a general audience tbh.

[@MosheGyt]

I only had two other people in my theater last night and we were all laughing throughout. Wish I could see it in a packed room

Yeah, saw this Friday night with my friend and it was a completely empty theater. I was really surprised it was empty.

[@magdlynstrouble2036]

Did you laugh when the abused child and the donkey died?

[@mudball35]

I thought they were going to reveal that Colin's character was a ghost. A ghost that was wandering around the town and the townspeople didn't mind having around since he just died. At one point, Brendan's character said he was going to play a certain song at his funeral. For certain reasons, he would no longer be able to do that. Brendan's character didn't want to be his friend anymore because he was dead. He didn't want to be tortured by his presence. That is why he was willing to go to such extremes. It is a fantastical story, so I felt like this could've been a possibility. I'm sure I'm just crazy, since I haven't found a single person who has mentioned this.

[@cilanthropetunia]

I've been the Brendan Gleeson before. This movie swept me up in an ocean of guilt, sadness, fear and and an overwhelming sense of regret. At the same time, I appreciated the film's dry sense of humor and the stunning filmmaking. I haven't had a film shove a mirror in my face quite like this one just did, one of the most profound filmgoing experiences in my 30 years of life.

[@Throgan]

I finally watched this on HBO and while I normally can normally arrive at the "good but not for me" I truly cannot see what everyone else does in this movie. I felt about this movie the way Siobhán feels about Inisherin and its population, and should've left when she did.

[@magdlynstrouble2036]

I felt gut-punched and betrayed by this movie. So much loss. And the graphic self-mutilation felt unbelievable for several reasons. I am pissed off at this movie. It's gratuitously ugly at the end, made all the worse by the beauty of the land and the lol humor in the beginning.

[@magdlynstrouble2036]

Also, we're meant to laugh at the "village idiot," and feel superior to him, only to find out he's a sexually abused kid, and then he either kills himself or is murdered by his abuser! Yeah, great. Real great.

[@samd2013]

Just watched this today at my local theater and I have to say I was surprised at how sad the movie was. It wasn’t boring like I was expecting it to, I was interested enough to keep up with the movie. Now that it’s been some hours since I’ve seen the film, it’s actually stayed with me and the movie is on my mind still. Very somber movie about despair and loss.

[@magdlynstrouble2036]

Actually I found it horrifying! Do not recommend, if you have a heart. It's full of cruelty.

[@SquiresIsle]

Like you said, not for everybody. I told my friend I loved it and it would be on my top ten list. She asked if she should see it, and I said, "...you? No. I don't think so..." Nothing against her or her tastes, it just definitely wouldn't hit for her.

A brilliant film. My favorite of 2022. Farrell is perfect, and the rest of the cast is outstanding. The ability of the writing to contain humor within the pain is difficult to do, but it’s done here. And then it’s an even bigger challenge to display those two conflicting emotions together on the screen. Farrell and Keoghan both do it so exquisitely in word and with just a look. Genius film. Of course your Rings of Power addendum turned my stomach.

Any art medium should stimulate your thought processes; should make you exercise those brain cells that contribute to growth. Sure, action films are fun, but when a cinematic experience like The Banshees of Inisherin comes into existence and gives you a chance to wrap your mind around complex truths like how intransigence, pain and rejection can lead to war with all of its collateral damage, it should be understood as great art.

I may stand alone, but I hated it. I didn't laugh, I was confused more than anything, Gleeson's self-punishments were confusingly dumb, the whining was irritating, and the only roles I thought stood out as remotely good were Barry Koeghan and Kerry Condon. With that being said, it didn't save the film. "Not for everyone" is true. And no, I am not a Marvel movie fan. I can appreciate a good story. This one was too unbelievable. Take out the self-punishments with a little more inventive back and forth (not waiting til the end), even still ending the way it did, and it would have been better.

[@BileDuctBalderdash]

In Bruges became one of my favorite movies ever the first time I saw it, still haven't seen anything that takes its place, but also the combination of Colin Farrell and Brendan Gleeson is one of the best team ups of 2 actors I've ever seen.

Thank you for your review of the movie. It sounds like it is worth watching. I really wanted to like The Rings of Power but after all is said and done, I only like Arondir, Bronwyn, Elrond, even though he is in no way my beloved Elrond, and the Balrog. Well, they only showed one Balrog if I'm remembering correctly. If the showrunners want a positive review from you because they're sponsoring you, I would mention the scenery and the depiction of Men in the South, and any favorite characters that you may have. I love Felicia Day, but I just can't. I still will watch the next season, but really, I'd love it if the Balrog would just burn the whole thing into the ground.

4/10 very disappointed by this super depressing simple allegorical story about someone who decides to shun their friend, but then harms himself to make a point... and I guess the point the movie makes is that our resentments or self righteousness really end up hurting ourselves as well others. But why does SUCH A NEGATIVE movie need to be made to make such a basic point. The acting was great, but sheesh, I did not enjoy that AT ALL.

I can't wait to see it.

"The Banshee: Ed Sheeran" coming to theaters for Halloween 2023!

I loved In Bruges. I hated Seven Psychopaths and I didn't care for Three Billboards (but I didn't hate it). Hopefully, this film is better than his last two films. I'm planning to blind-buy it.

First time I watched the trailer I thought it was father and son story. There's over 20 years age gap between Brandon and Colin!!

Even today in Ireland, the local bar is a mix of old and young. It's not unusual to strike up a friendship (basically chat with the same person) even if there is a massive age gap
