3/18/2023: Day of the Dorks
Directed by: John Crowley
Starring: Colin Farrell, Colm Meaney, Kelly Macdonald, Cillian Murphy

I really enjoyed this movie; it seemed really tightly crafted to me. It was predictable in some spots but that never really took away from the movie. At one point I thought it was going to get preachy about relationships, but thankfully it didn't. I must mention I love this style of cinematography (the handheld camera (at least it seemed that way to me)). I give this movie a 9/10, but that also might be because I'm partial to the Irish accent.

PS: That was one of the best intro scenes I've seen lately. Also, I chose to classify it as an indy flick because it has so many genres in it.

RATING: 4.5

PROS: Hilarious dialogue, Tight plot, Intertwining stories, Ireland
CONS: Predictable

This is one of those movies where the character development is more important than the plot. I found it to be an enjoyable movie to watch, and am now tempted to try mixing bbq sauce with my coffee.

It had some funny moments in it, e.g when one of the characters goes to a video shop and asks for recommendations.

best line: "well you're no tom selleck, but.." (bus driver referring to a girl's mustache)

I would like to give it a 3.75, it's above average in that it puts together different stories well, but it's not quite "very good", because I don't think i'd watch it again. it's enjoyable but doesn't really resonate in the mind afterwards.

Bam!
This movie was great. Very witty dialogue and I found all the characters quite likable.
