Disappointing coming of age drama set in Cork and Kerry. It's about three young men who go on a trip in a bread van to Ballybunion. Too talky for a road movie and though it's set in the 1980s by the time they arrive at the amusement arcade the games are all present-day ones! Charlie Casanova director turns up as a sex pest and the movie is let down by not being sure what it's supposed to be. None of the characters are likeable and the movie says nothing. Good performances and music but unfortunately that's not enough. This film had a lot of potential (especially with the running gag of the van falling apart) but it's a big let down. Best scene: the dying whale.
