Plot: In the suburbs of Dublin, more than a dozen strangers find their paths colliding in sometimes violent, sometimes absurd ways in Intermission, the first feature from director John Crowley. Setting the chain of events in motion is Lehiff (Colin Farrell), a small-time crook whose most recent petty theft has him on the run from Jerry (Colm Meaney), a self-aggrandizing police detective who's even more full of himself now that he's being constantly trailed by a TV news documentary crew. Meanwhile, Lehiff's friend John (Cillian Murphy) is going though a trial breakup -- or intermission, as he calls it -- with his girlfriend, Deirdre (Kelly Macdonald), who has promptly taken up with the older, more conventionally responsible bank manager Sam (Michael McElhatton). When Lehiff suggests that the answer to all of his and John's troubles is to set up Sam and rob his vaults, John's too eager to comply -- and their plan spells dire consequences for everyone in their immediate circle of relations. Also starring David Wilmot, Brian F. O'Byrne, and Shirley Henderson, Intermission had its premiere at the {~Galway Film Festival}, where it won the Audience Award, and secured berths at the {~Edinburgh}, {~Telluride}, and {~Toronto} festivals. ~ Michael Hastings, All Movie Guide

Hilarious comedy
Added 9/7/2009
I just saw this film....thought it was very very funny. Non Irish people might have difficulty with the Irish accents,not to mention the "colorful"language. The story is full of surprises and it is great to see the quality of the acting in this terrific cast.......Ireland (and the movies) sure have changed since I lived in that country 40 years ago.....a great advancement

I saw this film accidentally on TV in Finland and have been looking for it for some time since. I found it at Amazon at a very attractive price. I now own it and love it. Incredibly funny, with salty Irish humor and unpredictability.

Not even worth 1 star. Couldn't get past the first 15 minutes. For one thing I couldn't understand what they were saying and what I could understand was the 'f" word used about every other word. The brutality and crassness of the movie was way overboard. Maybe the edited version for TV can be watched but not this version. Call me a prude but if this is what the movie watching crowd wants heaven help us all.

Enjoyed the interaction of characters and I thought Colin Farrell was his usual best. It all makes sense in the end and getting there is half the fun. A must see/ a must buy film.
