Gangster movies don’t come any finer than this and there are very few done so well about the Irish Mob. I cannot find one aspect of the film that I don’t completely love, everything is done to perfection. The Coen Brother’s amazing unique style comes in to play within a very believable and traditional crime epic. The story works so well in telling a story about one person as well as a collective. Gabriel Byrne really does an amazing job, not many people could make this character so grounded and natural. The attention to detail and setting is flawless, this should be put up in the ranks with The Godfather, Goodfellas and Scarface.
