Shergar
Another Irish-themed movie filmed on the Isle of Man. This one is about the famous racehorse who was stolen back in the '80s. There's an impressive cast(Mickey Rourke, Ian Holm, David Warner) and a huge Irish support. But the movie is ruined by too much going on and of course the film is entire fiction as no-one really knows what happened to Shergar. I've never seen so many Irish supporting actors in one movie! Some of the scenes are contrived e.g. the Tourist-Board travellers and the chase by the landrovers. Little-known movie that's interesting but very routine.
