Highlights:
- Full credits to McDonagh, the maker. The film covers events over a week or so & it is hugely engrossing thanks to some simple yet soulful scenes.
- The action of the hitmen duo is top notch. The finesse of Brendan Gleesan is admirable. So is the quirky role played by Colin Farrell
- Locations (Contrary to Farrell's views, the shithole that Bruges is not) & the music add up to the pluses.
