Violent enemy
Another little-seen IRA movie this one involves a plan to blow up an electronics factory! Then there's a clock in a pub all through the movie that says 9:07 in every scene! However, on the good side there's some interesting footage of Ireland back in the 1960s and impressive casting. Makes a few interesting points about the industrialisation of Ireland and the clashes between the older and newer patriots. Routine and lame film that would look good edited into a one-minute trailer but the overall movie is disappointing.
