Critic Reviews
Great slabs of blarney are washed down with tears and Guinness in this yarn about a struggling Irish clan, and the resulting sentiment is blatant enough to wake Ned Devine.
Though the film occasionally rises to moments of genuine emotion and wit, it slips appallingly into corniness and hokum before coming to an abrupt and unconvincing end.
A bawdy comedy that convincingly celebrates the resilience of the urban poor and the power of friendship in the teeth of despair.
A pleasant little confection that leaves behind the sneaking suspicion it should have amounted to so much more.
A satisfying Irish stew made from very familiar ingredients.
The jokes run hot, cold and tepid.
Even though the soap employed is Irish Spring, this is still a soap opera.
Agnes Browne hums along as a series of pleasant vignettes, only frantically shifting to a single narrative track in its third act for the sake of an unbelievably upbeat ending.
