About as good as the first
21 December 2004
The Irish family, the Curleys, return. This time out Sharon Curley is pregnant and refuse to tell anyone who the father is. Having seen "The Commitments" (great film by the way), I was looking forward to seeing the second in the trilogy. And yes it's as good as the first, if not better as it seems to be more of a personal film I didn't really care for how Sharon's friends carried on in the beginning, but all the characters are believable and Colm Meany seems to be born to play Dessie Curley. One of the far to few films that take a pro-life stance (as soft as the stance may be) And I look forward to being able to watch "The Van" as soon as possible.

My Grade: B+
