Front line
This is just sh*t. Stupid Celtic Tiger movie where an African arrives in Ireland and gets caught up with local gangsters. Of course the police are all helpful to the Africans. Then there's a chase scene in Henry Street with the shoppers all standing round watching. Add in a dose of powerful music on the soundtrack, an ITV crime-drama filmmaking style, glossy cinematography, and one-dimensional characters to give an awful PC movie. Then there's a bad ending involving schoolkids that tries to be emotional. The kind of movie you look at instead of watching. Thank God these kind of films are not getting made here anymore.
