Summary of this DVD... | ||
Ray and Ken are hit-men. Ray is young, reckless, and doesn't enjoy the good things in life. Ken is older, civilized, and if anything, rather matronly. When Ray botches a job by accidentally killing a innocent bystander, both men are ordered to Bruges, Belgium and are told to await further instructions. What follows are some extravagant characters (cocaine-sniffing midgets, sexy thieves and pregnant women), insane situations (partying with hookers and midgets, falling from clock-towers and insulting Americans), a plethora of curses and a fast-paced, humor-laced final chase that will have you weary of what is coming around the next corner. | ||
This type of DVD is good for... | ||
people who love comedies. Probably darker comedies. Fans of action will love this one. | ||
I especially liked... | ||
how certain moments were really very touching. Although understated, this film deals greatly with integrity and equality no matter what. | ||
When I finished viewing this DVD I wanted to... | ||
visit Bruges. Or maybe not. | ||
The cast of this DVD... | ||
are superb. Absolutely fantastic. Ralph Fiennes is particularly excellent. His ability to make every line subtle is amazing. Colin Farrell is the guy your heartbreaks for, charming through his tragedy. | ||
I recommend this DVD because... | ||
it is so unexpected. You genuinely do not feel as if this will be touching or thoughtful at all until the final scenes. And the meshing of action and comedy is executed to perfection. | ||
