Great characters and plot twists in this very enjoyable dark comedy where the good-bad guys get the bad-bad guys. Willem Defoe at his quirky best as a weirdly brilliant but conflicted FBI agent on the tail of our darkly intrepid heroes. Great Irish slum culture portrayed here. And the out-takes are some of the best scenes!
Violence and language puts it well into the R rating, but nothing gory or overly graphic--just a lot of blood and shoot-em-up.

There's nothing much to be said about this excellent film, except for the transfer to UMD. On that note, the film is significantly brighter on the UMD, and I had no control on turning down the brightness. The darks were very bright, almost washed out.
