Teave selle filmi kohta

Sergeant Gerry Boyle is an eccentric small-town cop with a confrontational and crass personality and a subversive sense of humor. A longtime policeman in County Galway, Boyle is a maverick with his own moral code. He has seen enough of the world to know there isn't much to it and has had plenty of time to think about it. When a fellow police officer disappears and Boyle's small town becomes key to a large drug trafficking investigation, he is forced to at least feign interest when dealing with the humorless FBI agent Wendell Everett assigned to the case. Left to run his territory to his liking for many years, he is not at all impressed when the FBI comes to town. 2011 Boyle Film Productions Limited 2011 and UK Film Council.  All Rights Reserved.

If you enjoyed "Seven Psychopaths," then you're sure to enjoy this one. Think "Seven Psychopaths" meets "Hot Fuzz." Brendan Gleeson shines in this movie. You may need to turn on the subtitles to catch every word, but it's worthwhile. The humor is dry and very dark. The characters are lots of fun. Worth a watch.

Funny, and touching, but that would have been 3 stars. Makes you think and breaks stereotypes by pulling them out right in front in you

people here giving 1 star for accents, such bs! i'm from republic of Georgia, learned English in Queens and I understood 99% of the dialogue... this is a very good film, well done!
