Featured review
funny black comedy
London hit men Ray (Colin Farrell) and Ken (Brendan Gleeson) are sent to Bruges, Belgium to hid out by their boss Harry Waters (Ralph Fiennes). Ray had accidentally killed an innocent child. Ken takes in the sights but Ray would rather drink and go home. They encounter a film crew with a racist midget and Ray falls for Chloe Villette (Clémence Poésy). Ken is conflicted after Harry contacts him with the new orders.
It's funny and dark. Martin McDonagh has filled his film with a black comedic tone. Farrell fills it with his fidgety energy and troubled humanity. He's also hilarious delivering McDonagh's sharp insane dialog. One is never sure if Farrell is going to say something funny or hit somebody over the head or both. Gleeson provides the solid foundation.
