Critic Reviews

Sid Smith

An irresistible Irish comedy, lovingly told, beautifully acted and graced with the perfect balance of chuckles and bittersweet heartache. Read full review

David Sterritt

Lots of lively tunes and spirited acting. Read full review

Scott Tobias

The film's modest charms are ingratiating and sweet, thanks to Colm Meaney's hilariously salty lead performance and a soundtrack that channels the warm spirit of traditional Ceili music. Read full review

J.R. Jones

This uninspired comedy drama seems to have been bankrolled by the state tourism board, yet the Celtic music sequences provide welcome relief from the reheated plot. Read full review

Scott Brown

Feel-good ethnocomedy. Read full review

Marc Mohan

County Clare holds little of interest, with a generic story line and a cast that's mostly just going through the motions. Read full review

Russell Scott Smith

Isn't a total loss, but neither does it have the charm of "The Full Monty" or other feel-good indie Brit flicks it emulates. Read full review

Surprised at the poor reviews. This one of my favorites of all time. Don't pay them mind and you'll enjoy! Both the story and music are great and, yes, it'll make you want to go visit.

This movie is just wonderful! The soundtrack is amazing, and Andrea Corr is a really good actress.
