People keep recommending that to me.
Is it worth watching?


(consider I like films with explosions, interesting deaths and preferably robots)

Yes,
there are no robots but there's a midget and guns and quite gruesome death scenes.

The fact that a midget
is the main selling point shows the level that film is pitched at. For no reason, a midget put in a film so they can make jokes about him a) being a midget and b) how PC the world is today, where plain-speaking Irish assassins can't even use the word 'dwarf'.

There are none of those things
in In Bruges. 'Tis rubbish. Think any other 'dark comedy' gangster film.

I don't tend to watch gangster films,
Dark comedy or not, so I can't compare.

I'm on the fence
It was alright - I suppose the script had to make up a hell of a lot for Colin Farrells innate smugness.

Colin Farrell?
SOLD!

The script was pretty poor
it relied on the actors pulling contorted faces and making heavy use of their accents to make a line seem funny in a lazy-surreal way; a way in which only the stretched eyeballs of Brendon Gleeson can convey incredulity because the rest of the film is so confused it doesn't know what it's trying to say, and can't do it itself.

This makes sense
I was only jesting about the script being good to make up for Colin Farrell. The guys a cunt though. If only I didn't waste my Honda Accord on flattening that smackhead.
