Watched this by chance on late TV one night and found it very gritty and far more realistic than the already seen Cate Blanchett version of Veronica Guerin. The cast were a lot more 'Irish' looking and the script wasn't so Americanized. The whole pace of the movie and the sets were good too. Patrick Bergin is another brilliant Irish actor and is not in nearly enough Irish films about Ireland. The social scene, nightclubs and all were all bang on and I liked the pace of the film as well. The film didn't receive nearly enough recognition for it's stark look into Irish drug culture and to how low people will stoop to get their fix. Anyone who's seen Veronica Guerin would do well to give this a look......
