Movie Reviews of Bloody Sunday

Movie Review: Superb movie, perhaps a little unfair on the British
Summary: 5 Stars

I loved the cinematography in this movie. It gives the effect of actually being there. Also unusual was the fact that there is no music or score to this movie except for the closing credits. The director of this movie was going to take a lot of heat no matter which point of view he took. I thought that the movie perhaps made assumptions regarding the British troops which were a little unfair, but at the end of the day the overall story of the movie is 100% accurate - British troops shot 26 civilians, killing 13, while suffering no casualties themselves.

Movie Review: Bloody Sunday
Summary: 5 Stars

If you grew up with the Irish Civil War a constant part of the evening news, you don't want to miss this movie. James Nesbitt (Jekyll) portrays an Irish member of Parliament who is trying to make peace between the IRA and the British Government. A peaceful rally goes bad, and the horrors of the conflict come to life. The way it was filmed (hand-held cameras) lend an air of reality and the incredible sadness. This movie is based on actual events that took place in Ireland during that time. It held my attention the entire time. Highly recommended.

Movie Review: A stirring and powerful film
Summary: 5 Stars

This is a gripping piece of cinema that it is very involving and very sad. It's hard to watch some scenes and it really is an extremely emotional film, and one that presents a side of the event that is sometimes overlooked - namely the lives of the people involved.

Movie Review: Bloody Sunday
Summary: 5 Stars

The tragic riot known as "Bloody Sunday" is recreated to powerful effect in this film, shot in pseudo-documentary style by Paul Greengrass. The film unfolds virtually in real-time, so the viewer feels like an eyewitness to tragedy. While not for the faint of heart, "Bloody Sunday" serves as both highly visceral shocker and edifying political drama.

Movie Review: Trying to understand
Summary: 5 Stars

Excellent work. We took the family to Ireland and Northern Ireland this year and toured Derry. This movie was such a help for us to understand what happened on Bloody Sunday. We purchased this item because of hearing about the well received 9/11 movie by the same director.
