I watched this last night on Sky Box Office.
I'm not normally a fan of the Farrel, but I thought this was excellent.
And a fking GREAT ending, which I wont ruin for anyone who hasnt seen it yet, but wants to.
Anyone else like it?

Yeah, loved it. Thought it might be dull, but razor dialogue, a bit of gore and an easy going film changed my mind.

Colin Farrell is very good. However his 'error' makes for very uncomfortable viewing.

I loved it, Farrel was spot on, the ending was a bit.........but a very atmospheric, funny, disturbing, quirky and enjoyable film

Ah yes, his "error" - very well put.
I was not expecting that.
It has changed my mind on Farrell, so I'll try and see some ore of his films now.

There was a thread on this recently.

One of the best films I've ever seen. Up there with greats.

Yep, great movie. Bit more gore and violence than our usual selection, but both loved it.

Edit: reminded me of a chronologically linear Pulp Fiction.

Excellent film, very dark in places but also very funny. I took a few friends to the cinema after reading a recommendation on here some time ago and they all loved it.

PRobably the best film I've seen in the last couple of years. The dialogue was immense, throughout the entire film.

Definitely one of the better films I've rented in the last year.

Quite funny watching it having visited the place a few years ago.

If you like chips, beer and chocolate, Belgium is the place to go. Mind you, Bruge can be too touristy, it's worth heading towards Spa and the Ardennes instead.

Great film, I very rarely watch films more than once, but I watched this twice in a month.
