Summary: just let me do my thing
Comment: I saw a trailer for this movie which made it look like a very funny dark comedy and on the DVD cover it has these reviews saying how funny it is but it's actually a boring black comedy. Not too much really happens through most of the film except for the 2 hitmen touring around Bruges and getting into some minor situations and then their boss goes their to kill one of them for accidentaly shooting a kid. There is almost no action except for a little chase scene on foot towards the end which would've been okay if the dialoge would have been better. There are a few funny lines here and there through the movie but not that many and I mostly chuckled and only laughed outloud once or maybe twice also they talk pretty low so I had to turn it up loud. The only really good thing was the scenery of Bruges which is very nice.
I wouldn't recommend this but I do recommend seeing the trailer because it had most of the funny parts in it and you get to miss out on all the boring stuff.

Summary: Do not waste your time with this film
Comment: I do not normally publish reviews about the dvd's I watch. This one however left me wanting someone had warned me about it.
It is sad that good actors such as R. Fiennes would lend themselves to act in such a film. A tragic waste of a couple of hours...
Customer Rating:
Summary: Deserves an Academy Award (or several!)
Comment: In Bruges is probably this year's most under-rated film. Although humorous at times, this is a serious film of a developing friendship, a budding romance, and tragedy. The actors are superb and the location is perfect. A real 'must see' movie and deserving of an Academy Award (or several).

Summary: In Bruges by Brandon
Comment: Anyone who likes Colin Farrel will love this movie. It is a very dark comedy film that takes place in Belgium. About a hit man who botches a job. I recommend to everybody. You have to see it.

Summary: You have to follow your principles ...
Comment: The acting is good. The pacing is great. Bruges is beautiful. The language is atrocious. The dialog is ok. The movie is about miserable people, living with the morally bad choices they've made, knowing that life should be better than what they are experiencing. What I like about the movie is that the two main characters take responsibility for the bad choices they've made. They don't have any solutions, but they are willing to take responsibility. Fiennes character is wonderfully strange. I'm not sure this is every one's cup of tea, but I was smiling through out.
One of the key scenes is when Fiennes character confronts a character that Farrel's character roughed up. Fiennes points out that it is his own fault so he should stop whining. This is one of the themes of the movie. It is how the characters define duty and responsibility in a morally ambiguous environment is what drives the movie foreward.
