Somehow this film just never got into its stride.
There was nothing to identify with.
The village had no shape. The camera just shuffled between walls and around random doorways as did the cast, where the charm of the village was constantly referred to.
It got off to a really slow start with a stilted script worthy of a 6th form play.
The cast seemed awkward as if they had only been together for a week or so, with no chemistry between them all at all.
The Irish famously blend humour with charm and great timing. This film had none of this.
It could have been a bit of a gem given hard work, dedication, self reflexive humour and actual comic timing. Very disappointing.
