Perfect

Rating: 10/10 (7 January 2015)

I just watched In Bruges again after a gap of maybe two years. It gets better every time I see it as I always see something new in the story, the acting ... everything.
Brendan Gleeson, in particular, is a consummate actor and, in my humble opinion, deserved to have won every award he has ever been nominated for. This was certainly an Oscar-worthy performance from Brendan, and close to that from the other key actors too.
Yes, it's violent and visceral and there's a lot of swearing, but it's the language we might expect from characters like these. Not for the kids or the faint-hearted then, but everyone else should go see this masterclass in jet black comedy.
