Movie : Snap Review – In Bruges

Two hit men are hiding out in Bruges for a couple weeks until the heat cools down. They’re waiting for a call to let them know what’s going on. Come back to London? Maybe another Hit? One of them is making the best of it and taking in the sights and history of Bruges , the other can’t stand the shithole and is getting a little stir crazy.

That’s it on paper. On screen you are in for a cool ride of a film. Great characters, dialogue, direction and a great setting. Bruges. Lots of comedy and funny bits but some hard, real moments with the characters struggling with choices and guilt of past actions. Lots of twists and changes of pace. Off beat and a surprise of a good film.  It stays with you. Get to Bruges and “Hit a Canadian”
