Death of a superhero

This is just sh-t! The kind of Irish film that creates a 'buzz' in the festivals and media but crawls into our cinemas. Exactly what's wrong with Irish cinema. Nothing original and lots of references to other films, but done badly. Yet another film where we're expected to feel sorry for privileged Southside Dubliners! A young man gets cancer and he frees himself through drawing cartoons (which are more impressive than the rest). As expected: lots of lame indie bands at ½ the volume of the other sounds, familiar faces in support, a slight story, dull characters that fail to make you care, and worse of all BLANDNESS. The pretty schoolgirl is not pretty, the hooker is not sexy, the trip on the motorcycle is not exhilarating, the story drags, the violent arguments are not violent enough, and the escape from the hospital is not exciting. We've seen this stuff in other movies done much better. How in name of all mighty does Ian Fitzgibbon get to make so many films?
