Cultural sight seeing, two hit-men, a racist dwarf and a Dutch prostitute all feature in the hilarious black comedy, In Bruges. With an all star cast, superb performances and a brilliantly dark script, this is one of the most sensational hit films of 2008.
After a ‘job’ goes bad, hit men Ray (Farrell) and Ken (Gleeson) are forced to hole up in the picturesque and medieval city Bruges, under strict instructions from their hot-headed boss Harry (Fiennes) not to move from their dingy hotel room under any circumstances.
Young, fiery, punch first/think later Ray (Farrell) and the more experienced, cultured and worldly Ken (Gleeson) have only one thing in common – blasphemy. Whilst Ken laps up the chance to relax and take in the sights, party boy Ray is going stir crazy. Easily distracted by fine Belgium beer, an abundance of readily available drugs and a particularly tasty Belgian supplier, Ray’s gardening leave rapidly disintegrates into chaos – not really the definition of keeping a low profile! Things go from bad to worse their cockney boss Harry decides to take matters into his own hands, determined to make Bruges Ray’s final destination.
