What a conversation between Harry and Ken would sound like if they were talking about some lame person who doesn't like this movie:
Harry: So he's having a really nice time watching In Bruges?
Ken: Well, I'm having a really nice time watching In Bruges. I'm not sure it's really his cup of tea.
Harry: (Stunned silence) What?
Ken: You know... I'm not sure it's really his thing.
Harry: What do you mean it's not really his thing? What's that supposed to mean? It's not really his thing... What the fuck is that supposed to mean?
Ken: Nothing, Harry.
Harry: But it's a masterpiece, isn't it? How can a masterpiece not be somebody's fucking thing? The brilliant fucking dialogue, the perfect fucking casting, the wonderful fucking blend of the most hilarious dark humor with spine-tingling drama and character development... how can that not be somebody's fucking thing? How can that be?

me: edy or Musical for his performance as Ray, a guilt-stricken hitman, in the dark comedy In Bruges (2008) dir Martin McDonagh
Pure fucking brilliance. Everything fucking works. Fucking humour, fucking emotions, fucking Ralph fucking Fiennes is the fucking best fucking ever.
"You're an inanimate fuckin' object!"
I cannot get over that line. It's so fucking good.
"I'm sorry for calling you an inanimate object. I was upset."
colin farrell is such a daddy. please, colin, carry me away from bruges in your strong irish arms.
Martin McDonagh’s debut feature is a profane black comedy about those two perennial Catholic obsessions - guilt and sin. Two foul-mouthed Irish hitmen are sent to Bruges following a botched job and ordered to wait there until they receive further instructions. The film’s chief success comes in this brilliantly realised central pairing that is a perfect marriage between script and performance.
Colin Farrell plays the grief stricken, Ray - a cocksure and frequently inappropriate Jack the lad who made a grave mistake during his one and only hit. Ray, like practically every other character that finds themselves stuck in Bruges, isn’t particularly nice yet his natural Irish charm and sense of morality (albeit a warped one) make him an interesting,…
Alter.
Warum hab ich den Film so lange vor mich hergeschoben. Stil, Umsetzung und vorallem der Cast rocken 'Brügge - sehen... und sterben?' derbe.
Geiler (Schwarzer) Humor, nette Dialoge und Brügge selbst. Hach, wie schön. Möchte man meinen.
Der Film nimmt langsam fahrt auf, punktet davor aber mit seinem Charm im Aufbau - um dann komplett unkontrolliert zu explodieren. Was für ein geiler Film!
Ein schwules Bier für meinen schwulen Freund, und ein normales Bier für mich.
I am IN TEARS from laughing so hard. This sort of dark comedy mixed with crime stuff just really tickles me I guess. I mean I could tell what was coming for the most part but the way things happen and the dialogue just absolutely slays me. Love Colin Farrell too. Phenomenal picture. I can't say I recommend it becuase it is a little dated and it takes a certain palette but fucking hell it was just what I needed.
Introduced my brother to this tonight. He particularly enjoyed the "cunt fucking kids" bit.
100/100
I watched this one because I thought it would be a funny comedy and ended up being one of the most impactful films I've ever seen in my entire life.
