Four Letters of Love

I usually trust IMDB ratings, but this was an exception. Despite the promise of a good storyline, the acting was tired & exaggerated. Pierce and Byrne did a nice job- given what they had to work with. The main character was ill-suited for a romantic part. No charm or personality, and the supposed chemistry was nonexistent. A truly silly & improbable ending. Low expectations will be a good match for this oater.

I loved this movie. But, then, I think Niall Williams is a literary genius. And, he wrote the screenplay. I read a review in the Aussie Guardian by Peter Bradshaw, who awarded it 2 stars. But then, I thought, the man is a white, ultra middle class, Brit. Tends to be a bit stiff. I wonder what Margaret and David would have given it - I say 4.5 out of 5.

I don't know where to begin with just how profound this movie is. One needs to reflect on it - it's deep, it's emotional, and for me, it was transcendental - no I'm not hippy or, even, religious. Niall Williams speaks to us in ways that are not plain, not simple. I'm going again. And, wth tissues again.

In a world of pain, despair, broken connection and lost humanity, Naill Williams speaks to love, to belief, to beauty, to belonging, to depth and to, above all, hope.

The most amazing scenery makes me want to go and visit Ireland! A power cast and floods of emotion brings a movie that in the beginning felt lost. It comes together in an unexpected way. A constant journey where you are at times wanting to scream and hard to watch but the ending can be described as powerful! A masterpiece! Well done.

I did not know about this movie till I saw a poster in a local theatre. As I couldn't make that date I explored and went out especially to see it in brum I'm so glad I did. Beautifully shot,breath taking scenery and wonderfully executed story. I can't wait to watch it again.so well cast. I can't believe it's not playing in more venues. Fionn has done real justice to the characters. Emotionally charged with great subtle humour. I have been a big fan of Gabriel Byrne and he didn't disappoint.
