You're an inanimate f**** object!

I will probably lie awake tonight laughing at all of In Bruges comedic gems. Martin McDonagh's whip-sharp hit-man comedy is one of the most rewarding films I've ever invested time in. The film unites Colin Farrell, Brendan Gleeson and Ralph Fiennes - three of the most talented and under-appreciated actors the UK has working today - and produces amazing work from all three.
In Bruges does a fantastic job balancing the drama with the comedic, remembering to be sombre but never forgetting to lighten the mood. The jokes are sharp and blunt, delivered flawlessly by the trio of lead men (and also by the lovely Clémence Poésy, an underrated treat in herself). PC police will find plenty to complain about here, but as Brendan Gleeson would tell them....well he says it better.
Gleeson and Farell share chemistry and barbed wordplay with the skill that Pulp Fiction wowed us with back in 1994. I was invested in these characters and in their story, and most importantly, I laughed long and hard throughout the entire movie. An underrated gem, and what a pleasure it was to discover.
