Having never have seen an Irish film, I wasn’t sure what to expect when first viewing The Delinquent Season. The movie is a romantic drama that focuses on two married couples that seem to be together in harmony but is slowly revealed to have serious problems. The movie surprised me by how dark and suspenseful it was, featuring many plot twists and raw scenes that display the problems the couples face from adultery. Director Mark O’ Rowe does a great job in capturing my attention throughout the movie with emotional scenes that the actors do a great job in performing. An entertaining film overall, I will be looking for more work by O ‘Rowe in the future.

Delinquent Season is a suspenseful romance that portrays the lives of two families who become tangled in unforeseen ways. Based in Dublin Ireland, the strain in two marriages puts them all in a position to make a decision that will not only affect themselves, but their families as well. Delinquent season is flirty and fun with a touch of suspicion in everyone’s lives. The mysterious tone of this film constantly kept me wondering what would happen next. Cillian Murphy and Eva Birthistle will learn that bad consequences are often disguised as beautiful decisions.

Mark O’Rowe has perfectly captured the passion and guilt behind an affair in The Delinquent Season. In this Irish Drama we follow two individuals both unhappy in their own marriages and who find comfort in one another. The performances between Eva Birthistle and Cillian Murphy drive this film forward to new heights. Along with the rest of the cast the performances are all fantastic and all add to the story. The characters don’t feel one dimensional they have conflicting issues and feeling giving them depth and emotions that feel very real. This is a must see for any fan of romance or drama.
