The path to redemption can be both wickedly humorous and depressing

Rating: 8/10 (13 November 2017)

In Bruges has one of the best cathartic endings I've seen for a movie.
It was executed in a way that it changes the entire outlook of the movie's first half where the narrative seemed simple at a surface- level. Yet the emotions will certainly run deep upon viewing it on retrospective.
It's deeply admirable that a comedy like this that is often bitingly unapologetic and dark can be fused with the movie's humorous yet tragic examination of a man's inner turmoil, guilt, one's sin and his path to redemption through means of finding his own sanctuary (through ironic terms).
