Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great Irish Movie
Review: This is a great movie, that is about all of the good things in life. Friends, family, and of course love. It explores what it is like to be an Irish-Catholic, and how they live their lives. Edward Burns is plays a charming, cynic who no longer believes in love. WHO COULDN'T RELATE TO THAT? Great movie about everything that is good, being Irish, being religious, having great friends family, and lovers. Edward Burns is a very talented man, who stays true to his Irish roots. If your Irish, or are just looking for a charming film, see this movie.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Pleasant.
Review: This is a pleasant film about problems concerning love. There are three brothers who run into difficulties that they have to solve. My favourite is the second oldest brother. Barry has seen how his mother had to struggle for years with a man that she did not love. After Barry's father is dead, Barry's mother is finally able to marry the man she has always loved.
Barry's reaction to his mother's fate and also to his own relationship with his father, makes Barry afraid to form a steady relationship with the woman of his dreams.

This film touches important issues like love, committment and religion. There were many funny scenes in this film too, so it was good to sit down and watch it.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Frightening that anyone would think well of this flick . . .
Review: This is one of those true "The Emperor Has No Clothes" movies . . . the kind that so many people seem to feel obligated to like -- because it's "real" and "low-key" -- but, honestly, it's just badly written & without any imagination . . . sure, I can watch a couple of folk talk about nothing as they do laundry, or sit out in front of a house, or walk down the street -- in fact, I can do that for free by just stepping outside. And if no story appears, that's pretty much what I expected . . . unlike a film, which you hope will (eventually) convey a story!!! I thought Warhol's filming of the sides of buildings for hours had brought at end to the theory that "mundane is art" . . . avoid at all costs!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Entertaining!
Review: Very good movie, except for the casting of Maxine Bahns in the role as Barry's girlfriend. She is a terrible actress.
