Great movie. Nice blend of comedy and thriller

Rating: 10/10 (14 September 2014)

If you hate Colin Farrell, this will make you think otherwise. Rarely a movie tickles your funny bone and then makes you all gloomy at the same time and that's what differentiates In Bruges from other movies. Great direction, brilliant cinematography and some amazing work from the lead actors make the movie a delight to watch, something you're not gonna regret after you are done with it.
The movie uncovers as a slow touristic dedication to the canal-based city of Bruges, unraveling it's medieval architecture, old buildings and sort of sombre milieu and gently turns out into a dark thriller, something you would never expect from it. The chemistry between Farrell and Gleeson gives comic color to the first half from which the movie grows to become even more shadier with the advent of Ralph Fiennes who is funny in his own evil way.
Contrary to what a lot of people say, I really liked the ending. It was definitely unexpected and probably a cleaner way to end a dark comedy like this one. I would suggest this to all kinds of audience. Just so that people know that this too is a way one can tell a story.
