A brilliant and very funny film - if you liked In Bruges then you will like this. The scriptwriting is top notch as are the performances from the two main characters and the actors in the (excellent) supporting roles. Apparently the Director is the brother of Martin McDonagh, the Director of In Bruges and although the similarities are very clear the differences are just enough that you can see two distinctive styles. I think the main similarity is in the writing style - both have extremely witty one liners and dark, sharp and sometimes truly odd dialogue which I love. Another review compares it to a few disgusting Guy Richie films but please don't let this put you off - its FAR better... Just watch it!
