An excellent crime thriller mixed in with some dark humor

Rating: 8/10 (5 July 2015)

In Bruges is a terrific example of how to properly make a crime thriller mixed with dark humor. It's a very fine line to walk and it's very difficult not to cross that line, so when this type of film is pulled off successfully, it deserves some major credit. Colin Farrell and Brendan Gleeson have awesome chemistry together. Brendan Gleeson always tries to look at things positively and he is met with Colin Farrell's amazingly negative (and funny) responses. The beginning of the film is a tad slow, but once it picks up it grabs you and never lets you go. I was surprised by how much I actually ended up liking it. Overall I though this film was great and I say go see it.
