Watchable. The idea must have come from the changing face of the Emerald Island, traditionally associated with green pastures. This movie sets the record straight about the seemingly peaceful country. It puts together elements of what people know about Ireland and throws in a bunch of wannabe drug dealers (the leads) set against a gang of priests - the Church, after all, has been getting away with a few thousand years of paedophilia - vaguely threatening the rivals on TV when talking about "the Lord". Drug dealing and big-time murder are the core of action which doesn't ring very true. And the movie definitely fails on a few points: cinematography, actors, direction. All that means it does not make for such compelling viewing. And the vexing ending is the straw that breaks the camel's back. Wasted priest gang potential.
