Visually a stunning film. Though a times I can see how the repeating imagery can be grating I think this was fitting for the feeling of the film over all. My biggest issue with the film was that it was clearly made for people that had a good understanding of the Bobby Sands issue. For the start of the movie I just spend a lot of time trying to figure why the fuck these guys wouldn't shower and chose to live in actual shit. Somehow they made the shit beautiful. Good movie but I didn't love it. If you are doing to watch it wiki Bobby Sands first so you are not in the dark for the first half.

500 days of summer
2/10 winkies
In all ways possible they were trying too hard and always missed the mark. The story line was jumbled unnecessarily. The characters could have been likable but you never got close enough to them to relate. The wardrobe was uninspired and music name dropping was nauseating. I like the set of their apartments. This was not cohesive and the storyline lack imagination and meaning. This movie is for people who are a little quirky by choice, not me.
