Gillen gets out of jail and looks after his niece (he killed her dad). They move to a caravan park and meet a woman from Belgium. That's it, nothing else story wise. Character drama that is similar in tone to an earlier Irish film (Crooked mile). With lots of indie-dirge music on the soundtrack (piano, guitar, glockenspiel), the film is so slight that it's interesting enough. Very bland with boring dialogue and similar in style to several recent Irish titles which can't be a coincidence. Good debut from the director, hope he makes more stuff like this. What I liked about this movie was the lack of establishing shots, it was more interested in exploring characters' interactions with each other than showing off the camera. Other than that it's forgettable and slight. The title comes from a doctor joke, second opinion.
