The forms taken by the curse were so contrived and over-the-top that they undermined the charm for me. IMO, this movie would've been greatly improved if the scriptwriters had come up with more subtle ways for the curse to manifest.

Best Irish movie !!!
paganann29 October 2019
This is my favorite Irish movie overall because the content is truly authentic. I grew up in Ireland and can identify with the storyline. We honestly didn't know how to handle special needs people. These people were different and we simply didn't know how to relate. I love how the storyline played out. This movie Gaelic Curse covered a very big subject matter in a thoughtful and delicate way. There was humor associated with it which made me laugh, there was sadness which made me cry, but the beautiful music lifted my spirits, I highly recommend watching it.
Great movie for the entire family

This film was a joy. The interaction between characters was a delight. I enjoyed the comedic levity of the film and while some aspects of the plot may journey into the fantastical, I still found qualities of the cast relatable and endearing. A big music and dance scene in the town's pub was a highlight. It felt authentic and as the players on screen were having a good time so did I as a viewer. Writer Brian Walsh impresses with a comedic and sympathetic performance as Limp; and praise to Director Jack Conroy for carving out an entertaining, imaginative and fun movie.
Charming and light hearted movie

This movie was very well made with a little dark humor but also a feel-good, lighthearted watch. Funny and enjoyable to watch with the family. It had a really good cast and acting. Great chemistry with the actors. It was well produced.
I enjoyed this movie. I think it's great!

A magical tale of a lump and a limp... very entertaining

There haven't been such strange goings-on in an Irish village since Waking Ned Devine. Not sure if it was the fun, the scenery, the music, or the devil himself but this film was sweet: definitely two lumps of sugar for me.
Great film!

Very Different

Romping good fun and darkly, devilishly humorous at the same time. Be prepared to laugh--and dance.

Zany and rollicking good fun, darkly humorous and lighthearted at the same time, suffused with a human warmth that makes you laugh with and feel for the characters, even the bad guys, with a wonderful musical interlude that will make you want to jump up and jig or river dance.
Classic Old School Irish Comedy

Thoroughly enjoyed this film. Lots of funny unusual characters in a small town in Ireland. Good energy form all the actors and it is obvious that they were all having fun with the roles they were given.
Great credit goes to the production team for the choices they made in terms of location and music.
Great Film. Entertaining and fun
