Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
For all his movie's tough talk, it's a sometimes slipshod construction.

fresh:
It plays really engagingly, with the leads doing a wonderful Mutt and Jeff act and the camera lingering lovingly over scenery that looks awfully pretty in the moments before it gets spattered with blood.

fresh:
In Bruges is a wildly imperfect feature debut, but it does make you curious to see what else McDonagh has to offer.

Those who know McDonagh's work know a vein of darkness will run deeply through the comedy. It has seldom been darker. Or funnier.

I never expected to be moved by In Bruges, but I was.
