This is one of the worst films I have ever seen. The opening looked like an advertisement for Guinness. Every shot was over produced, over lit, and therefore inauthentic. I didn't believe for a second that the street was a genuine street. It practically screamed film set and you could almost her the 1st assistant director calling 'Action' as the extras scurried to and fro. Also some of the Irish accents were appalling and the Van Morrison saturation under every scene to provide pathos instead of the script doing what it should, is what eventually had me fleeing the cinema. Dreadful.
