Not a profound work of cinema, but Deadly Cuts is, nonetheless an extremely entertaining film. Somewhat implausible though, imho. But I loved the camp.

"Deadly cuts" tells the story of Michelle (Angeline Ball) and her team of hair stylists in a working-class suburb of Dublin. A local criminal Deano (Ian Lloyd Anderson) is forcing her to pay protection money and a local councilor is threatening to demolish the street. I kind of liked the storyline. Yes, there is a twist that you will see coming from a mile away but overall it is a very well executed plot with a fantastic cast. Outstanding acting from mainly Angeline Ball (Michelle), Ericka Roe (Stacey) and Shauna Higgins (Chantelle). The movie is fast-paced and with a run-time of only 90 minutes you will never get bored. As the spoken language is Irish, I am sure I missed some jokes here and there. But this is a movie well worth watching.

I'm really fond of dark comedy, and I really love Irish comedies. So this was brilliant fun for me. It was a bit campy at times, but it kept everything fun.

These girls really put the "deadly" in the deadly cut, in a really humours way. But in the rough town where they're trying to keep their hair salon, they have to! No body, no problem! The acting was great, and there's a lot of really likable characters, even in the bit rolls. Especially the other people from the small Irish town.

Even though the overall plot was predictable, the giggles kept coming. So it was just fun, with murder on the side.

Just finished watching this and really enjoyed it! Angeline Ball looked beautiful....gorgeous! Great one liners...pure Dublin wit! If you get our sarcastic sense of humour you'l love it! Enjoy! :D.

This was a surprisingly well done comedy, not too wet and well acted and directed. Similar to zoolander but smarter and funnier without going over the top to the point of ruining the idea. Worth the watch, especially if you think Irish people are inherently funny.
