What begins as downbeat Irish humour soon turns into bleak, black comedy in this dryly farcical Irish film, made possible by perfectly pitched, deadpan performances that are kept in check

Reviews for A Film With Me In It
1 - 7 (sorted by fresh rating; Australian critics are listed first)
Top CriticA rather outrageous comedy which knows exactly what it’s doing and, within its limitations, does it very well indeed.

Top CriticThe epilogue leaves you feeling hollow and empty, but as a less-than-satisfying film concludes, you may also realise that this is entirely the point.

Top CriticA wonderfully black Irish comedy in which one dead body leads to another, this unassuming film takes a simple premise and milks it for all its worth. And it works beautifully

Top CriticIf Mark and Pierce had been two people whose welfare I cared more deeply about, the film might have carried me for the duration. As it is, they were a bit like guests who stayed too long at dinner.

Top CriticShot digitally on a low budget, the film is basically a one-joke concept spun out to 90 minutes.

Top CriticIt feels like a television episode gone on too long.
