Hot actor, Colin Farrell, 33, won a Golden Globe award as a hitman in the film called In Bruges. Holed up in Bruges, Belgium after a difficult job, two hit men begin to differ on their views of life and death as they become used to local customs. This comedy will make you laugh, if you can understand their accents. “In Bruges” is itself a goof, both diverting and forgettable. Despite the guns, genre posturing and self-consciously naughty shocks (jokes about racist dwarfs and fat Americans) it’s also unmistakably sincere.
Brendan Gleeson and Colin Farrell are a hoot and I might add very pleasing to the eye. This Hollywood bad boy knows how to entertain and he does it well. It’s easy for Colin to turn on heat; what’s hard for him as an actor is turning the temperature off, or at least down, as he does here — finding another way to connect to the material (and us) beyond the promise in his dark, fluttering lashes. His performance as Ray is as crudely conceived as it is finally sentimental (the same goes for the film), but it’s also winning because he makes us see the goofy side of seduction.
