Movie Reviews of Intermission

Movie Review: Hilarious comedy
Summary: 4 Stars

I just saw this film....thought it was very very funny. Non Irish people might have difficulty with the Irish accents,not to mention the "colorful"language. The story is full of surprises and it is great to see the quality of the acting in this terrific cast.......Ireland (and the movies) sure have changed since I lived in that country 40 years ago.....a great advancement

Movie Review: Intermission
Summary: 4 Stars

The story moves along OK for me because there is lots of close ups os Cillian Murphy, and he looks really great.Turns out, it's actually a good movie as well! The vignettes are interesting, different, and are brought together nicely.

Movie Review: Not to bad
Summary: 4 Stars

I first so this movie when I was living in Ireland so I decide to buy it, it is funny if you know something about the Irish people.

Movie Review: Good Until the End
Summary: 3 Stars

Intermission juggles about fifteen relevant characters and scenarios during the course of the movie, and then attempts to tie them together at the end. The humor is very good (revenge on a nasty boss, Colin Farrell's reaction to the "brown sauce," etc.), the acting is very good (Farrell, Colm Meany, Cillian Murphy, and the ex-girlfriend), and even the pacing and creativity is very good. If this movie had ended with the same confidence and orginality that it began with, we'd have an excellent film. However, the finale is so cliche and unbelievable that I can't even bring myself to recommend the film. Two major plotlines, one with Colin Farrell, a cop, and a documentary film maker, and another with Cillian Murphy and his ex-girlfriend, end so horribly cliche that my friend and I turned the film off in disgust, laughing at the idiocy and swearing at the near-destruction of an excellent film. Let's put it this way...the movie sets itself up to be a realistic yet unpredictable tale of life in Dublin, and following that logic, certain people in the movie should die, certain people should live, and certain people should want nothing to do with others. The movie washes it all away with a surpringly cliche Hollywood ending that ties strings together that never deserved to be tied. There were parts in the conclusion that the audience members were clearly intended to rejoice over, but they were so trite that even the actors couldn't completely pull it off. Rent this movie for the first three quarters, but prepare to be dissapointed at the end if you're an intelligent film goer. If the stuff mentioned above doesn't bother you, and you enjoy things neatly tied up, then you certainly can't go wrong with this flick, and feel free to add one or two stars to my original rating.
