Review: I really enjoyed this movie. The different characters who a have there own interpretations of faith, made the movie really interesting and a joy to watch. The storyline was brilliant and it really shows that you don't need a big budget a loads of action to make a great movie. The priest, played by Brian Gleeson, was pure and showed that, under any circumstances, you always have to have forgiveness, no matter what the person has done. From being there for his daughter, who had a suicidal nature, to seeing a murderer in jail, who obviously had psychological problems, I really didn't know what direction the movie was going to take. With the addition of a murder mystery, the director really put the movie together well and all of the performances were A Class. A Must Watch!
Round-Up: Brian Gleeson has really come to light in the latter part of his career. From movies like Troy, Edge Of Tomorrow and Safe House, just to name a few, he is obviously a first choice for many directors. It's good to see that he also stars in low budget movies and that he stays grounded by contributing to Irish cinema. Chris O'Dowd was a weird choice for his role because he usually plays comedic parts in movies, but he did play his part well, even though he was sharing his wife. There are some familiar faces throughout the movie who all put in emotional and intense performances. It's just a shame that this movie just broke even because it deserved much more.
Budget: $8million Worldwide Gross: $8million
I recommend this movie to people who are into there intense, mysterious, comedic dramas about a priest who has a week to live and goes around his village helping fellow church goers. 7/10
