Funny, Violent, Rude, With Tons of Swearing

Rating: Null/10 (27 February 2008)

In Bruge is an incredible film about two assassins struck in the Mideival Belgian city of Bruges. The movie is by Martin McDonagh, his first, although he has won the Tony for playwriting and is an incredible story teller! He has been described as Tarantino-esquire, and the dialogue certainly comes off that way, as well as the comic presentation of violence.
I thought the drama was very well placed, though many will disagree, and it eventually added to the strong character development and overall effect of the story. Dwarfs are very prevalent in this film and provide much of the comic relief, as well as the foreshadowed ending.
The movie is funny, violent, rude, with tons of swearing, and an incredible story; I recommend it highly!
