Movie is full of over-acting... Irish actors play absurd people, characters that soap TV series dropped 10 years ago... even Maeve B (author) looked stiff as a board in her first cameo scene... the US characters were better but the story needed a big finish... so what was it that went on around the table in Kenilworth Square???? someone tore up a piece of paper and everybody around the table says "wow!".... it isn't possible to tare up a piece of paper and make everything alright, not in law, not in real life, not in Ireland and not in a fantasy B movie. If it were on the telly, we all would have changed channel. "Circle of Friends" wasn't bad at all so that will have to be Maeve's high point I fear.
I didn't leave the cinema so it gets a 2/10.
