Unexpectedly captivating

Rating: 9/10 (11 February 2020)

I got to In Bruges expecting a comedy . Turned out there was more to it than just that.
The movie's style of comedy suits me, so it was a pleasant first half with these in-character performances. As the movie gets darker, the actors still successfully pull it off. Colin Farrell's emotions look genuine.
Principle wise, the movie deals with racism and racial prejudices (lightheartedly), as well as a certain criminal code and their willingness to stick to it. The major theme, however, is atonement, and is dealt with quite well.
An interesting watch, with a good plot and some real emotions
