The Banshees of Inisherin

Meredith shared a tip "I’ve never wanted to be transported to a location more. As for the movie, I genuinely disliked it (which is making me feel v uncool)"

miaparker shared a tip "⭐️8/10⭐️ My husband & I had differing opinions on this. He thought it was shite & FECKING boring, too slow, a downer, & he thought the people were “stukes & skitters” because they didn’t appreciate the beauty of the island — I agree with him on that point, & I wanna go drink in that pub!🍻 But I really liked this 🙌🏽 It’s #darkcomedy just the way I like & appreciate. There’s no way Colm would be walking around with his missing bloody fingers un-bandaged🩸…that’s just some of the #dark_humor 🎻 And the fighting on the mainland is #symbolic — the characters are analogs for the Irish civil war. I say check it out & judge for yourself! If nothing else, you will L❤️VE the #cinematography & might appreciate the beautiful terrain & the look & feel of this #Period_Piece which takes place in 1923 #Ireland 🇮🇪"

amelia_kaiser shared a tip "Great movie. It was incredibly frustrating at times but the acting, cinematography, and overall meaning of the movie was beautiful"

rob_paul_4714 shared a tip "Like they say, no one does dark comedy like the Irish. Jeez. Fantastic movie. Brendan Gleeson is great as always, and who woulda thought back in the day that Colin Farrell would turn into such a good character actor? But it’s the rest of the entire cast who put it over the top."

2gmiguel shared a tip "Verrrry slow, kind of dry, definitely a bit weird. Not sure how or why someone came up with such a storyline but it's something a bit different at least."

nostalgiaqueen shared a tip "This one cracked me up not sure if it was supposed to be funny though. I enjoyed it was weird might have gone over my head a little. I think there was some themes of mortality and wanting to give life meaning, introspection and isolation. That sort of thing, not sure I’d ever watch it again but it was fine. 🤷🏽‍♀️"

theefinalboy shared a tip "y’all absolutely floored me. A sometimes sweet, sometimes dark, very funny and very sad tale of mortality, legacy and friendship. It’s not even worth breaking down just how damn good everyone in this cast is. Colin Farrell is superb, a career best performance. Brendan Gleeson and Kerry Condon are also great, and Barry Keoghan is a scene-stealer. Cinematography and score are wonderful 🤌🏾. Loved it."

vito_lupedee shared a tip "Colin Farrell and Brendan Gleeson are back together again. The reason I wanted to watch this movie is because I enjoyed these two when they starred in "In Bruges". I guess I was a little disappointed, because this movie is nothing like that. That's not to say this movie isn't good, because it is good. It's just a different pace and flavor. As dark comedies go, this is a bit of a slower pace but that is part of its charm. I give it a solid B."

damien_scott shared a tip "I was so excited to see an In Bruges reunion. Funny at times. Downright depressing most of the time. I didn’t dislike this film. But I’ll never watch it again whatever that means."

aditya_7055 shared a tip "Such an incredibly well written and well acted film, with a beautiful mix of pathos and comedy and a haunting exploration of loneliness. Phenomenal acting across the board (Colin Farrell and Kerry Condon especially) and beautiful cinematography and score. Wouldn’t mind seeing this film win Oscars."

pjara shared a tip "This beautifully crafted film moves, amuses and bemuses and definitely made me ponder its deeper meaning long after it finished. For a film with such sparse dialogue, plot and cast there is a lot happening underneath."

brian_strong_7504 shared a tip "The acting was tremendous but I found the movie depressing. What happens when suddenly, for no apparent reason your best friend does not want anything to do with you. I t would be natural to try to restore the friendship, but for the protagonist there were dire consequences."

cydney_curtis shared a tip "A gripping dark comedy with a story that keeps you on your toes and connected to the character played by Farrell. The Cinematography and landscape of Ireland is breathtaking, and you will see why this film was nominated so many times this Award Season💜"

gabrielle_grosbety shared a tip "This was such a beautiful, gripping film! It made me laugh out loud on many occasions & then simultaneously deeply sober up as it went on. It was painful, complex, and jarring to watch a relationship unravel at the seams on an island where everyone is intimately familiar, so much so that they know the other’s going ons on a level almost too claustrophobic. Highly recommend!"

realstibby shared a tip "This would definitely go on my "all c*ps are bad" list had likewise not nuked it. Surprisingly funny considering the descriptors like "existential" and "exhausting" I daw thrown around w it. Not that I blame those. It can dip into being emotionally taxing at times but I think it remains balanced and engaging."

boss10_cream shared a tip "Possibly my favorite Martin McDonagh film. Funny, sad, poignant, elegantly told and beautifully shot. If you have the means, see this in a theater if only for the natural and breathtaking cinematography."

ny_murtha shared a tip "Opposite of an action movie. It lands on your heart like a sad puppy. And, occasionally, it’s funny. But mostly, it’s about being human in a lonely world."

DjCount shared a tip "This movie is all about the dialogue. It's superbly written and acted. It's funny, but also sad and dark. Definitely an emotional rollercoaster worth riding. 8/10 👍"

jessica_sonya shared a tip "It took me a couple of watches to really appreciate the plot and main story. On the first watch I really was trying too hard to dig for something deeper within the meaning, but now I realize the beauty in the simple story line. Really love this film and it’s now actually one of my favorites! Pretty sad but really captures heartbreak when it comes to friendship breakups."

sara_ku shared a tip "I watched this movie about two weeks ago and I'm still thinking and talking about it. Surprisingly after every time thinking or talking, I understand it better and better. So, if you like to being engaged with concepts about relationships, loneliness, middle age crisis, etc, I highly recommend this movie."

natetheworld shared a tip "In the silence and violence of an escalating war between friends, there are many lessons to be found in this film (despite the maddening lengths these men go to make their respective points). We will all question what will remain after we are gone. Almost all of us want to leave something that lasts longer than our name. For me, none of that matters without good friends standing by my side. Despite Colm’s arguments, wonderful friendships can also be a legacy."

laura_heibs shared a tip "Finding it a bit shocking that this is called a comedy at the award shows. Was mostly just very sad and frustrating, sure with a funny bit every once in a while but sheesh. Great themes, lovely performances from the cast, and beautiful to watch, but comedy is pushing it for me haha"
