Advantages: wonderful acting, good story and great scene variation, nice town also Disadvantages: the ending was predictable based on characterisation
of some of the streets, a museum, buildings, the train, a hotel as well as a late evening?s view from the top of a tower.
the plot
two hit men sent to bruges from london. one of them wants to leave Bruges and the other does not mind the place and quite likes it. ray clearly shows his emotions that he does not want to stay two weeks in bruges with Ken. throughout most of the film harry (the evil boss who hires the two assassins), he only joins the film once he discovers that ken has killed a little boy. harry largely communicates via telephone. killing a priest is one thing, though killing a little boy is another story.
film review
early on in the film there is a street play taking place where he notices a dwarf chap called jimmy, and also meets chloe (a gorgeous blonde young woman).
Asides from the moments of sadness ...

Where the bloody hell is Bruges?
In Bruges is a 2008 comedy staring Colin Farrell (phrowaaaa) and Brendan Gleeson. When I read it was a comedy I was interested to see it because I think Colin Farrell is quite funny anyway so I thought it would be quite good,. I didn?t know much about the plot but as it also got an award I had high hopes.
Well, it?s probably best described as a dark comedy. It sort of reminded me of a Lock, Stock type funny film with the same type of London gangster laughs and get-ups. The main themes running through the movie are that are guilt, morality and redemption and it?s done well. In my opinion you do get to see some real emotion from the main stars and that they are really thinking about where they find themselves in their life. I didn?t love this movie though because I thought it was quite slow and not ...

Advantages: Great script, well shot and directed, good performances, un-PC Disadvantages: Slightly too contrived ending
When a 'job' goes drastically wrong for two hitmen sent to kill a priest, the two hitmen in question, Ken and Ray, are sent off by their mobster boss Harry to camp out in a hotel in Bruges until the chaos has blown over. Ken (Brendan Gleeson) decides to take the opportunity to soak up the culture in this 'fairytale' city, but Ray (Colin Farrell) is less impressed with being dragged around Bruges tourist attractions, declaring Bruges a 'shithole'. However, when they come across a film set with a rather attractive crew member, Ray decides that maybe there is something worth seeing in Bruges after all. However, while Ray is out on his date, Ken receives a phone call from Harry with a set of instructions he is not prepared for...
All in all, this doesn't sound like the most action packed film you've ever seen, and those looking for thrills ...
