Top Critics Reviews
rotten:
Makes music almost an afterthought, and as such it never truly sings.
– Bruce Westbrook,

fresh:
Irresistible to all those with the slightest speck of Irish blood running in their veins. Or even those non-Irish viewers with a weakness for Irish plays, Irish music, Irish dancing, lilting Irish accents or pints of Guinness.

rotten:
Don't ever think that Hollywood has the market cornered on formula flicks. Those folks from across the pond, in Britain and its environs, can do predictable with the best of them.

rotten:
Really just a long fiddle session in a very familiar pub.
