Intermission or In Bruges?

Simple enough, which is your favourite?

Basq · 31-08-2009 8:14am

It's a tough one...

... I think 'In Bruges' is the better film though!

KTRIC · 31-08-2009 8:16am

Its a hard one, both are equally as good in their own right. Intermission wins for me purely because its in Dublin

Intermission, has my favorite opening scene ever

Overall, I think In Bruges is the better movie.

Nolanger · 31-08-2009 8:29am

They're both contrived rubbish - better suited as straight-to-DVD.

In Bruges

In Bruges

I can't believe people are actually picking Intermission!
In Bruges is 10 times better! Got it on DVD for €3.99 delivered on play.com too

Because 'Intermission' is a very very good film, Paparazzo.

It's well-written and has some great performances.

I'd say 'In Bruges' is technically the better film but 'Intermission' isn't far behind it.. and it has it's charms. Plus I'd say that 'Intermission' has more memorable quotes than 'In Bruges'.

And it has one of my favourite opening scenes of the last few years:

Intermission by far!

krudler · 31-08-2009 11:48am

In Bruges by far, why the comparison though? because Colin Farrell is in both?

I thought Intermission was absolutely god awful when I saw it. Really terrible.

Loved In Bruges though...thought it was hilarious and had a very strange unique atmosphere.

"Look, their filmin midgets":D

I thought Intermission was just trying too hard to be the Irish version of Pulp Fiction, interweaving storylines with at times ridiculous premises

In Bruges is great though, one of the best British (and its British not Irish before that debate raises its head again) movies of the past decade

In Bruges

Intermission is so much better. In Bruges is decent but dull and Colin Farrell is blown off the screen by Gleeson and Fienes

ANTIFA! · 31-08-2009 5:31pm

Tough to decide but I'd say In Bruges. I like Colin Farrells charachter so much and the idea and setting was cool.

Outkast_IRE · 31-08-2009 7:27pm

Enjoyed them both but has to be In bruges .....
It just had this atmosphere thats so strange and hard to find in film , actually i cant think of any other film that had such atmopshere.

intermission!

In Bruges - without a doubt - Martin McDonagh is an absolute legend!
