A Film with Me in It
A dissolute scriptwriter and a dejected actor become unwittingly drawn into a labyrinthine mess when several people experience bizarre accidental deaths in their flat. Though the men didn't deliberately cause any of the incidents, they fear that they will be unfairly pegged as murderers if they relay information to the cops, and promptly set about disposing of the corpses in gruesome ways.

I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much
Very Cool!!!
Boring
It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional
The idea is fantastic. A bunch of people keep having deadly accidents in the apartment of a broke wannabe-actor. Now he has to avoid looking like a deranged serial killer while the bodies start piling up and his best friend tries to write a movie around the whole thing. Tucker & Dale Versus Evil uses one half of that plot, and it is hilarious. 7 Psychopaths uses the other half, and it's brilliant. One would think that a black-humoured British amalgam of both ideas, starring Dylan Moran of Black Books and Shaun of the Dead would be even better. One would be very, very mistaken. The first wasted opportunity is casting Dylan Moran not as the lead, but as the grumpy alcoholic screenwriter friend who plays second fiddle to Mark Doherty. Doherty is unable to make his character likable, or what happens to him intriguing. Instead, he sleepwalks through the movie like a robot telling a joke. The next big flaw is the soundtrack, or lack thereof. Combined with the bad pacing, you never get a sense of events escalating. Instead, it's a string of the same thing happening over and over again until the film ends with an unlikely and unsatisfying denouement, while the subplots go nowhere. So much wasted potential. This could have been a sleeper hit with a cult following. And it turned out to be bargain bin fodder that's just not worth watching. At all. Stay away.
This film stars Dylan Moran and someone who's name and face I will try to block from memory (this non person also wrote the screenplay). It has something to do with an actor who has to deal with dead bodies and attempts to get work. Or something.I saw this as part of the IFC in Theaters cable service and all I can say is I'm so glad this was essentially a freebie since the movie was part of the service I already pay for. Actually the other thing I can say is this is only the second film I've seen from IFC Films that I can't understand how it got picked up for release.This is an unfunny film that made me stare at the screen wondering what I was supposed to be laughing at. Moran is a funny comedian, I'm a huge fan of his, but he's not the star some other guy is so I had to really suffer. The best way to describe this is as the sort of odd ultra dry humor that is so dry as to not be funny. Who did Neil Jordan owe that he got hooked up with the writer and star?(Jordan's attitude at the beginning is how I felt about the film) A waste of time
This requires a little suspension of disbelief. An appreciation of the deftness of the actors helps. If you have a little background in Beckett, there are some more resonances. Both Moran and Doherty know how to spin the story, lend credibility to the scenario. It is a tribute to their intelligence as actors that the premise engages you and holds your attention. Watching them is a delight as they portray their downbeat characters with warmth and affection. Their synergy and subtlety makes this a low-key delight. If action, cgi and high-octane blockbusters are your bag, stay away. Otherwise, enjoy the wittiness of this small scale gem and celebrate the fact that such pictures get into circulation at all in such cash-straightened times.
Well if a good romp in some dark territory sounds like fun then this is your movie, def low budget, but the cast more than makes up for it as any good dark comedy classics will prove.After a series of set-up albeit, believable accidents happen. The pair, comprised of a compulsive drunk, gambling, writer and a dim witted, down on his luck actor. Together they must use their skills to avoid the jail time that will surely ensue, after they make the situation progressively worse.I'll give it doesn't take too much to figure out most of it but the trip was worth the ticket cost and seeing some of the cast from Shaun of the Dead working was a great surprise and a joy.If you enjoy dark humor and the witty humor of the the Irish/English then you'll enjoy this one no matter the side of the world you hail from.
