In Bruges (2008)
description written by member Zara:
In Bruges is the darkly comedic tale of the fates of hit men Ray and Ken (Colin Farrell and Brendan Gleeson, respectively). After a difficult job in London, the team is ordered by their boss Harry (Ralph Fiennes) to cool their heels in Bruges. Very much out of their comfort zones, the men find themselves drawn into increasingly dangerous entanglements with locals, tourists, and a film shoot. Soon, their perspectives on life and death are violently skewed. Clémence Poésy is cast as Chloë, a woman working on the movie who catches Ray's eye, to the displeasure of her ex-boyfriend Erik (Jérémie Renier).

Two hitmen played by Colin Farrell and Brendan Gleason are ordered by their boss Harry (Ralph Fiennes) out of London and into Bruges after a hit to lay low and take in the sites.
The hitmen land in this...

You cannot say much about this film without giving it away, and I wouldn't dare do that as it is so full of surprises that everyone should see it.
It so reminded me of Crete. I spent two years there and visited all the Minoan sites. Of course, all the tourists go to Knossos, and my wife didn't mind that as it is partially...

'In Bruges' is the best film I have seen so far this year. It does just about everything right and watching it made me look back at Cassandra's Dream with newfound disappointment. Woody Allen could have easily made that movie like this, but did not, and the task fell to Martin McDonagh, who won an Oscar for his short...
