Overview
A raucous story of the interweaving lives and loves of small-town delinquents, shady cops, pretty good girls and very bad boys. With Irish guts and grit, lives collide, preconceptions shatter and romance is tested to the extreme. An ill-timed and poorly executed couple's break-up sets off a chain of events affecting everyone in town.

Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
Not real Irish, but the movie kind: the latest to stumble off the [John] Ford assembly-line.
Such are the dangers of teaching foreign cultures to yelp like Reservoir Dogs.
Intermission bursts with the energy of a documentary filmed on the run with a stolen camera.
Intermission is the first movie in ages to show us what Irish native Hollywood star Farrell is capable of.
