Some people are saying that the accents are more American ? I'm from ireland not alot of people actually speak like that ! It's really well put-on it's and amazing movie well made amazing effort from the actors they're great people good memories with them all go see it and stop about the accents !=L
The man who wrote and directed the movie lives next door to me :) the boxing club is my karate hall :) all done in one city mainly :) amazing movie was in bits saw it all filmed my brother was the little boys double :) vinnie And Michael are amazing so is Richard they were all brill good movie :) -3 xxxxx
Accents are not always dead on. Chill people. No reason to be offended. I come from the South in the US which is always stereotyped and highly embellished so to speak in most films. It's just the way it works some times. This film was made to be sold to other film markets outside of Ireland (mainly in the US) which explains the choice of actors. And like others are saying Michael's character was IRISH-AMERICAN not Irish. I've seen the film and I actually really enjoyed it.
I was wondering when someone would mention cutting someone's ear off. lol. Well, I can say it looks bad, but, being a fan of Madsen's I will watch it... and that is all I have to say on the matter... but I can't help but say,, dear sweet Lord his accent is BAD!!!!! Jaysus! xD
with the Irish accent, Michael Madsen is almost as bad an actor as Vinnie Jones, and the directing makes, Guy Ritchie look inspired. Where the f***k is Quentin Tarantino when you need him . . .
Damn... this movie earned few recognition. An it´ll surely never come to germany with a good translation... it´s sad to see what kind of shitty movies make it into the big theatres and so many good movies are left behind...
Not to mention barely any of the non-irish actors could put on a passing Irish accent. Michael Madsen didn't even sound like he was trying, and whoever thought of casting Vinnie Jones as an Irish traveller must've been smoking crack at the time!
I was really excited when I heard about this. Michael Madsen as an old Irish boxer, it really sounded fucking bad ass. but i think the movie itself wasn't as good as it could have been. they had all the elements, drop Michael Madsen and Vinnie Jones in that kind of plot, it could have been a fucking instant classic, but the film makers got wrapped up in melodrama and didn't have any real style, and it ended up just being a mediocre movie.
Really want it released on dvd..its my boyfriends favourite film ever after seeing it once in the cinema...id love to get it for him as a suprise but its just not being released =(
bit of a chessy storyline, kinda like a rocky/never back down theme going on with the wannabee appeal of snatch......its gonna have an obvious ending too......only reason people will see it is cos of vinnie jones n michael madsen, but hey ima give it a watch anyway ya never know
Some of those reviews are from when it was tested. It was recut early last year and has since won over twenty awards at festivals. I saw it in Hollywood with a few hundred people and the audience loved it. A great film, maybe not 10/10 but a definite 8 out of 10.
It hasn't been released in the U.K. yet either, but it did so well in Ireland that it actually charted in the U.K. charts, which is half linked with the Irish ones.
I'll have to check this out. I've been looking for a movie with some brutal bare knuckle boxing in it since I saw Crossing The Line starring Liam Neeson.
must have been inspired by snatch. NO tinkers would put up that kind of money, if they did the fight would get fixed by whoever was the strongest traveler gang/family as theyd stand to lose too much cash. And NO proper boxing coach would ever encourage any of his fighters to get involved in bareknukle fighting, its very diferent to ordinary boxing and with dofferent rules too and the fights are constantly interfered with and often mismatched.
vinnie seems like a tough guy but if you get a chance watch national geographic "excellent adventure" he goes to mongolia and does nothing but bitch and moan, what a soft cock.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
this film is a disgrace to irish film. its make ireland out to be something its not and i would say if anybody from the traveling community watched this they would be insulted. the accents are terible.
im not tryna be bad but de accents seem a bit hollyood style vinny jones does an alrite traveller accent its not perfect but its alrite but its in fukin cork and u dont here ny cork accents
in my opinion dis film is 4 a tick american audience
Melrose Films, a little bit of friendly advice. I would be slow to criticize any other film, especially with that piece of shit that you have posted:)
This film has been made a long time ago, it was called ROCKY. Same shit all over again with a different setting (Ireland). This tired formula has been done to death. We're sick of more of the same with new wrapping!
im a traveller, well settled one but nomad i remain at heart and i think this film was great, i seen it in boston 2 weeks ago, is has a great story to it and shows not just the rough side of tinceoirs but a good side to, im sick of seeingthis knacker stuff wrote up, its only in south africa, deep south america (us) and the middle east where its so accecptable and not questined that a person can be openly racist to another culture in public and not be questioned.
I think dis movie looks great.. in my opinion people are being too critical on this page, okay its not gonna change the world but it looks like an entertaining movie. Anyway I go 2 da cinema 2 enjoy a movie, if i want 2 be intellectually stimulated il read a book.. :) im lookin forward 2 seein it. Its not often a movie with such big actors is made in Ireland so i think irish people should be proud!
I wasn't proud of Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman putting on cartoon Irish accents and playing at roughneck Irish peasants.
I feel sorry for you if you only look for intellectual stimulation from books. Anyway, I also enjoy entertainment but I am not entertained by cliches!
Utter shite (and I'm from Cork). Vinny Jones couldn't act his way out of a paper bag. Michael Madsen only ever did one decent film in his career (clue:this isn't it).
Vinnie Jones is good at what he does - he acts as tough guys and he is perfectly cast as a knacker (he more or less is one!) and the snippet of him talking in an Irish accent sounds credible enough. Michael Madsen always acts as monosyllablic scary thugs as well. He was excellent in Sin City with Bruce Willis and in Wyatt Earp with Kevin Costner. Not a great movie but probably worth a look.
