Description

|
|
|
In this dark comedy from 2008 hit men Ray (Colin Farrell) and Ken (Brendan Gleeson) have been ordered by their boss Harry (a profane and hilarious Ralph Fiennes) to cool their heels in the beautifully preserved medieval city of Bruges after a job that goes terribly wrong. Hit men make bad tourists but while Ray fidgets and complains, Ken is enjoying the sights. Before long, Harry appears in Bruges, and Ray and Ken soon find themselves in a life-and-death struggle of comic proportions. "It is not only ingenious but almost inevitable the way the screenplay brings … destinies together at one place and time. Along the way, there are times of great sadness and poignancy, times of abandon, times of goofiness, and that kind of humor that is really funny because it grows out of character and close observation."—Roger Ebert
