Don't Sell Me a Dog

Excellent movie and well made . One of the best Irish films I've seen recently.

Very impressed with cast and crew , nice little indie movie looking forward to working with these guys soon.

I came across this online and thought I'd give it a go. While it starts out as what you'd expect from a typical crime movie it ends up been more. The characters are not straight forward and all have secrets that slowly come out during the film. The final twist, of which they're are many really adds another layer to this little Irish film- which isn't the usual dreary stuff we expect from Irish cinema- but rather a different type which is great. The film is a bit rough around the edges but the story delivers and entertains. The Gangster Brian has some brilliant scenes. All in all well worth watching.

Watched, no knowing very much about the film, and not expecting too much from a very low budget, Irish film.

Was pleasantly surprised however.

The script was tight, and hit all the right beats. The actors, all to a tee, were very good - especially the BRIAN character.

And the twist? Well I certainly didn't see it coming!!

Room for a sequel me thinks.... ???

Love to watch and support Irish films, especially low budget first features like this.

Whilst the majority are good solid little productions, most have very little about them.

This film however, has a great cast, a great script and an amazing twist at the end of the film that makes you just say - "Wow", and then clicking back to the beginning, to make sure this twist all adds up and wasnt just thrown in last minute for 'shock value'.

As an aside - Yes, the twist does work, and yes it is built up throughout the film, without making it obvious what was coming.

With such a small budget, and such a tight film frame (was filmed in days I think I read), this really does exceed what little expectations I had for it.

A must see - If only to see how low budget, local films should be made.

Well done all.
