Excellent film

Rating: 10/10 (10 November 2017)

This is a brilliant take on the Irish battle of independence that understandably made difficult watching for the British media in recognition of the colonial past. Cillian Murphy gives a brilliant performance and the plot will tug at the heartstrings. Taking any political slant aside, the film has a great cast and great visuals telling a heartbreaking story. Ken Loach deserves great credit.
