In Bruges (2008)

FILM4, 11PM ★★★★★

 Director Martin Mcdonagh’s ( Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri) smart and sassy gangster film is two hundred miles from a hackneyed Guy Ritchie-style Cockney caper – literally. Two wisecracking hit men (Brendan Gleeson and Colin Farrell) are holed up after a botched job, waiting to hear from their sociopathic boss (Ralph Fiennes). Clémence Poésy co-stars in this violent but gleefully funny tale.
