One of my favourites of all time, possibly because I love listening to (and imitating) Irish accents, but also because I thought Eamonn Owens as Francie Brady was fantastic. True, the movie has a rather dark and sadistic theme to it but plenty of laughs as well and I thought the combination of these worked well. It will not appeal to all but I still find my self wandering around the house saying "The incredible Francie Brady ladies and gentlemen", with my best Irish accent, 3 months after I watched the film for the 2nd time.
