Not designed to blend in (can a film in an eccentric mold achieve true eccentricity?) and yet lacking the extra inch to distinguish it from its better-known kin, Perrier's Bounty is content to merely measure up
It keeps lumbering to a halt, in an attempt to make us care about the central relationships, but the writing never delivers characters who are anything more than unsympathetic caricatures
Enjoyable Irish thriller with a blackly comic edge and strong performances from Murphy and Broadbent but there's never a sense of real danger and it occasionally feels over-familiar
