Very realistic and provocative film about a horrific day, which never should have happened

Rating: 7/10 (21 January 2002)

Originally from Derry, I had wanted to see this film for a very long time, and was very impressed when I did. The film far exceeded my expectations and must be one of the best films on the troubles in Northern Ireland. The acting was fantastic, especially Jimmy Nesbitt as Ivan Cooper, but the cast as a whole done a brilliant job. The film was very realistic and some nice cut editing added to the confusion of the day. Very provocative film, which seems to bring across the facts of what actually happened, as far as anyone can really know. Definitely worth watching. 8/10
