@pazzizlepants definitely, just read an article in EW about his new movie Shame...I have a feeling we'll be seeing a lot more of him.

@criticnic What an excellent review! I've been putting off watching this movie because I know how emotive it is. I was a child when this took place, and I remember posters of Bobby Sands around our town when he was on hunger strike, and was upset when my parents explained to me what it was all about. Michael Fassbender is such an excellent actor, and so versatile. I'm following his career with great interest. Liam Cunningham (the priest) is great also. Keep up the good work on your reviews!

@halistra24 I can't recommend it enough. I do find your history to be fascinating, and makes for some really good movies from what I've seen. Let me know what you think of it. Thanks as always for your comments!

@SCOTTISHFILMFAN I can't recommend this one enough, very simplistic yet makes a huge impact. Fassbender really is great, will have to check out Eden Lake. Thanks for your comment!
