Europe is getting along just fine.

Indeed my friend. This is almost high IQ movie and u broke down this picture perfectly. Cudos to u!

Just like reality… I can think of so many great films that were classified as comedies because the award circuit has to make categories. But the best films don’t fall neatly into any one slot.

Susan B

It’s easy to get audiences to empathize with nice people. Making me care about the character arc of a hired murderer is a skill.

Susan B

They’re all in purgatory. Only way to explain that there are never any police sirens no matter how public the shoot-ups.

Susan B

Wow. Thank you for this first-time watch, Mr B. The same acting duo star in The Banshees of Inishirin (2022?). Maybe all great movies are a hybrid of tragedy and comedy. Like life.

lol wut?

Movie is good. Stop those fckn superhero references, moron!

I Like that you continue to watch smaller movies like this one. Add Sexy Beast to the list and no, not sexual. Heist movie.

Update on Deadpool/Wolverine movie: Chis Stuckmann says it's good also. Indeed Hugh/Wolverine plays the "straight man" and Ryan/Deadpool... is Deadpool. So the comics basically: Wolverine is The X-Man, Deadpool knows he's in a movie/comic, is pretty insane, and does the comic relief. It's official MCU entry. It will be the only "Official MCU" rated R movie to date. It's also basically a real-life redemption arc since they will be playing their most liked versions (Wolverine ala "Logan", Deadpool from the Deadpool movies) at the same time... so it'll make up for what they did to X-men Origins: Wolverine. You should go watch this one in the movies actually. It appears it'll be worth it. The last Marvel movie I went to see was Dr. Strange... and the reason is I saw the visuals... they look like a DMT experience, so I was highly intrigued. This looks like it's going to be great, and I know these two reviewers would have called it trash immediatelly if it wasn't good.

He tries to be a better person at the end, similar to Colin Farrell’s character in In Bruges. Some people had issues with the movie trying to get the audience to have sympathy for his character since he’s an awful person.

VitaminPete616

Yeah i remember that movie. That fckr was funny. Usually Sam Rockwell plays so god damn anti-protagonist but in this movie at the end. Damn he rises with Francis to ´´make things clear´´ Am i remembering movie correctly?

The writer/director, Martin McDonagh, is known for politically incorrect, dark comedies that have flawed protagonists. Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri is his best work imo.

Is 12 monkeys best role from Brad Pitt? He won oscar as geniuine mad man on psycho ward! Its beautifull movie which these Corona times hit the nail. It was made 1995

Im typing this comment from Bruges :> the dog you see at exactly 6:00 was the most famous belgian dog. The dog would always sit at the window looking out at the water. The dog's name is Fidèle, you can look it up. Tourists would take boat trips just to see that dog. Americans would send it fan mail and dogtoys. Bruges or as we belgians say "Brugge" has a special place in my heart.

They only respond if you've been hitting Canadians.

Martin McDonagh, the writer/director, is a former playwright known for *exceptionally* dark comedies. He has continued this trend in film. Excellent stuff.

One of my favourite jokes is that when they go to the tower at the climax of the movie, it's closed, and the attendant says it was because yesterday, an American had a heart attack on the stairs. It was the fat guy from the beginning. Also, Ken chucked coins off the tower so that he wouldn't hit anyone when he jumped. You can see the crowd backing away from the spot before he jumps. After all, if stuff falls from the sky, you'll get out of the way. But my favourite line is "Two manky prostitutes and a racist dwarf... I'm calling it a night." And for your information a lolipop man/woman is a crossing guard. They are called lollipop men because of the shape of their stop signs.
