| Filmcritic.comChristopher NullIs there a point in this somewhere? No clue, honestly. No clue. |
| User ReviewRory Fyfe SVery good movie. About a terrifying couple of hooligans who cause havoc in their wake. The couple were born on the same day. Good acting. |
| User ReviewManda CThis movie is pure brilliance. Murphy shines in his role as Pig pre 28 Days Later fame. It took me a while to understand the heavy accents. But once I did the story was really rewarding. A story about obsessive love told in a completely original fashion. |
| User ReviewSam NWatch twice and with subtitles and you will be able to mentally digest the AMAZING dialogue despite the heavy cork accents. The relationship between Pig and Runt is so complex and beautifully strange, and heart retching when the passage from adolescence drives them apart. Runt begins to see the world that isn't all consumed by Pig, while Pigs feelings for Runt only continue to deepen as he cannot fathom a life without her. Cillian Murphy is just beautiful and amazingly talented. |
| User ReviewMrs. B WYou'll love this seemingly morbid childhood love story that both Cillian Murphy and Elaine Cassidy portray. |
| User ReviewLilianetty lINCREDIBLE!!!!!! Cillian rocks in this movie...so talented and so dramatic! Runt is my fave character next to Pig. Their childhood, their chalenge to live in a world with violence, indulgence and so different is the real mix for this masterpiece. Teenagers of 17 with problems of love, and when they realize their not mean to be together....it's when we realize...love is not an option to live...we live for us...not for materials or persons who does not love us, only love us for who we are...not passion...BUT I SAW IT SO MANY TIMES IT STILL THE BEST! |
| User ReviewDanielle SThe best film I've ever seen, must have watched it countless times. Everything about it has a magic touch. The story is so irresistibly tragic which makes up for the (at times) shoddy directing. Everyone should see it, then cry into their cornflakes. |
| User ReviewRob .What a film, it's the mutts nuts, sad but true... |
