Colin Farrell and Brendan Gleeson in The Banshees of Inisherin (2022)

Review by Stewball

The Banshees of Inisherin

5/10

That old familiar sense of dread.

As I was watching this, which at first blush is a very intriguing and well produced movie, I began to feel that old familiar sense of dread washing over me, headlined by the question, "Where is this going?" "How could this possibly end in a meaningful way?" Yes, many quality authors have had their downers, but they've inevitably turned out to be cautionary tale of some sort. Every quality that can be judged in this film is top notch, but with there being no point, I'm only paying to be disappointed--superb pun intended.

My best advice is to wash it out of your brain, if you've already watched it, and fill in the gap by watching "Wild Mountain Thyme"--a beautiful, uplifting masterpiece which is also set on the Emerald Isle.
