Watch The Irish Pub For Free

Best movie of this year hands down!

Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

The Irish Pub is packed with charm. Whether it be scenic pictures of the Irish countryside, quirky publicans or comforting songs, it is difficult to not be captured by this documentary. The spotlight is upon several pubs throughout Ireland that share a common thread of tradition when pubs were kept in the family for generations. Stories are shared from centuries past which offer to the viewer a direct link to a time and place that would otherwise remain undiscovered.Each pub has a unique story of circumstance, owner and patron. There is a lot of weight to the history of each pub and the film does fine work of communicating this. Most of the entertainment comes from the patrons who are equally as funny as they are endearing. The accents, clothing and pub decor all come together to present a fascinating picture. Subtitles may be required for certain parts!

I travel a lot abroad with business and have visited irish bars far and wide, so I really enjoyed this documentary when it was released. I've gifted it to some international friends and it is really a joy to watch. It's the most honest and charming representation of the people and places that are the guardians of what is sadly a dying institution. Many irish pubs have none of the character and hospitality featured in this movie but a little bit of research in advance will serve any visitor to Ireland well. The characters and stories depicted are unique but yet easily recognisable if you've ever visited an irish pub outside of Temple Bar in Dublin. Can't recommend it enough, may be difficult for non-irish viewers to understand some of the accents but if you want to see the real, native facets and ingredients that make up the real Irish Pub experience do yourself a favour and enjoy this lovely selection of stories and pubs.. The documentary maker has really excelled here, waiting to see his Older than Ireland documentary next!

A fantastically crafted documentary, that makes you smile from ear to ear and at the same time pull on your heart strings with its sheer authenticity and wonderfully unique characters. Some might argue that the film does not explore the alcoholic down-side of the Irish pub or indeed Irish culture. I think this would be slightly missing the point. The film is an exploration of personality, tradition and character and how we are losing these unique characteristics to generic brands, sameness and franchised retail shops without a soul. This lends an instictive poignancy to the film as we sub-consciously become nostalgic about something that is not lost yet, but is something that we are losing.There are also moments of sadness in the film where one can get the impression that all is not sewwt and rosy with the customers. You do get a sense of pain and loneliness but the film doesn't need to explain this and shouldn't. This is where the film comes into its own. Cannot recommend this enough!
