Barely watchable silly black comedy

Banderas plays a Spanish crime boss based in Ireland who is in cahoots with corrupt local police. This is established with some silly opening scenes, which at least tells us how to take this film - as a black comedy.

A few years ahead of the opening and things go awry as a shootout during a payoff leaves a case of money missing and the cops unpaid. Enter the four person clean-up crew, which includes Rhys Meyers, who find the case stashed up a chimney at the crime scene by the wounded sole survivor, whose return to the scene to recover it, is badly timed.

Mayhem ensues as Banderas sends another henchman to get the money back from the oddball foursome who are still deciding what to do with it. And no one really knows or accounts for the skills of the drugged-up, paranoid ex-military member of the quartet.

Banderas hams it up as the angry crime boss, who constantly quotes Machiavelli to almost everyone's annoyance, which would be amusing but for the fact that he stands out so much for doing so, when almost everyone else plays it straight and dry.

The rest of the cast, script and situations, tend to be, at most, mildly amusing rather than laugh-out loud funny. The humour does have a dry Irish quality to it, but it isn't very strong and doesn't come close to something like Derry Girls, nor is this movie a patch on the likes of an early Guy Ritchie move like Snatch or Lock Stock. Those were the places and heights that this movie seemed to hoping for, but misses by a considerable margin.

It's watchable, but only just. It could fill an hour and a half if you have nothing better to do or see.

Gangsta comedy wannabe. Not even Antonio Banderas could make it worth watching...

I started watching it because of the (allt time great) actor Antonio Banderas, but even his performance isnt enough to make this worth my while...

The bad: Antonio Banderas' character is pretty silly, but at least his performance has got some charm to it. BUT the other (unknown) Irish actors are plain bland and acting way below average. Mind you, better like watching subtitles otherwise you wouldnt understand half of the Irish accents.

NOT funny. NOT thrilling. NOT original. It's a gangsta comedy WANNABE. The Irish arent any good at making movies. The Brits are. But this is an Irish production and it painfully shows. NOT recommended, not even for the Antonio Banderas fans, of which I am one!

Wow, this was annoyingly bad

As a huge fan of Antonio Banderas, I decided to give this a watch, and oh man, this was some of the dummest sh!te I've seen in a long while. After the first few ridiculously placed and pointless Machiavelli quotes, each one afterwards went from eye rolls, to cringe, to absolute annoyance. The story was entertaining enough and did have potential, and I do like some of the other cast, but it was the directing by Jon Keeyes that made this movie a flop and a waste of time. Cast direction was clearly absent, and it even seemed like most of the leads were either drunk or high or both throughout the entire runtime. The entire movie was infantile, and something you'd expect to see from a bunch of drunken high school kids filming each other on their phones. I'm not sure what dirt or hold Keeyes has on Banderas, because this was Banderas' third film with the same director, and his previous two were also flops. C'mon Antonio, you deserve and can do much better than this. It's a generous 3/10, all going to Banderas and some colorful cinematography and set pieces.
