Liam is Back
8 December 2023
Liam Neeson is Finbar Murphy, living in Donegal at the times of the Troubles in the north of Ireland in 1974. The hitman for hire has decided that it is time to hang up his gun when a troubled little girl forces him to come out of retirement for one more kill.

Kerry Condon is a dedicated member of the IRA and has just led a car bombing in Belfast which has killed two children near the blast.

She and her cohorts wind up in Donegal where her brother has been done in by Finbar for his treatment of the daughter of a neighbor. The gun toting freedom fighter seeks revenge for the death of her brother.

Neeson and Condon are terrific in the lead roles and the Irish scenery is breathtaking. As a fan of Dostoyevsky, I was able to guess the final scene. One of the best films of 2023.
