While I don't agree with all the comments stating that it was a fantastic movie, it did have some very good moments to it. I thought the cinematography was lacking in many areas where it could have been very creative. I felt like I was watching the play, not a movie with endless possibilities of angles and lighting. However, I was unexpectedly drawn into this dysfunctional family where nothing was as it seemed. There was some good laughs and heartfelt moments, but the best for me was the music. With sounds of Flogging Molly and Susanna Hoffs in the background, it created a perfect mood throughout, transporting me to the streets of Ireland. This is definitely a soundtrack I will be purchasing when it comes out.
