This movie was a lesson in how not to act out of a paper bag. There were pauses af if they had to think of their lines. I love Matthew Goode and Amy Adams but they were so wrong together. He seemed forced to be with her. In addition, he doesn't have romantic lead in his repertoir. I was really disappointed as I love all things Irish and had looked forward to this. The male lead was boorish and mean and the female lead was so clueless. Just a silly waste of space IMHO.
I loved the special effects. The story was not very original with it's "revenge of a loved one's death" storyline, but it wasn't terrible either. There was a weird thing going on at the very end with Patrick Stewart's face. Kind of bizarre.
This movie is hilarious! I was in stitches. John Turturro is so funny. Adam Sandler and the bunch are funny as well. There is a message in the movie about intolerance and peace without being preachy.
