This film,while not being the best film ever,manages to be quite watchable.
The story is set in a squat in Inner city Dublin run by main character Jimmy. Gradually, the house becomes more and more full with George,Ronnie,Tom,Orwell and Mary.
This film's strong point is definitely its sets and lighting. These really show the dinginess and squalor of the surroundings.
One thing that wasn't fantastic in parts was the acting especially when the writer attempts humor.
In closing,watch this film if you have an interest in Irish Cinema because few others will find it worthwhile
