Chances are you already know the “twist” but the rest of the movie is gripping. The start had me hooked immediately
Amazing! One of the most unique movies I’ve ever watched... loved every second of it
I came in to this movie not wanting to like it given what I had heard about it but I found an amazing story.
A complex film that operates on personal and political levels A psychological thriller about the Irish 'troubles.'
An unconventional film that emphasizes philosophy over plot, which can make for slow cinema, but should be respected nonetheless.
This movie was controversial when it came out. It would be interesting to see how it would go if debuted or written in modern times.
Unusual, yet great, story. Definitely worth seeing.
Acclaimed in 92 for a slightly nuanced take on then sensitive issues, today the Troubles plot seems shallow and the gender theme plain bad
Interesting story, lots of intriguing modern noir themes. Aged a little poorly
a griping start which has a twist...set in troubled Ireland the film is about acceptance of things that make us differ
