Seeing "Written and directed by Martin McDonagh" attached to a movie instantly throws my expectations up in the air. I never know what lies ahead. I really liked his 2008 feature film debut "In Bruges." I was lukewarm on his 2012 follow-up "Seven Psychopaths." I thoroughly disliked his third film, "Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri." So what about his fourth film, "The Banshees of Inisherin"?
Colin Farrell, Brendan Gleeson, and writer-director Martin McDonagh reunite for a spiritual sequel to their 2008 assassin comedy-thriller In Bruges. This time, Farrell and Gleeson play two old friends who have a mysterious falling out. In limited theatrical release Oct. 21, with a nationwide rollout to follow.
Colin Farrell and Brendan Gleeson reteam with their "In Bruges" writer-director, Martin McDonagh, in this piercing dark comedy set on a windswept Irish island.
