Despite Intermission's low budget, the talented cast manage to bring to life a mostly light-hearted script, featuring some grimmer moments of cartoon violence.

A hyperkinetic ride through Dublin's underside. Just imagine Robert Altman directing on speed.

"Intermission" is a bloke-and-smoke spin on "Love, Actually." It's for women seeking a romantic comedy that doesn't reduce relationships to cutesy-poo homilies. By adding shootouts and car chases, it's slso for guys who are just not that into goo, either.

| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Sep 24, 2010

Intermission feels fresh. Perhaps that's because ... it's not a quirky romp about a colorful bunch of wacky characters with a so-crazy-it-just-might-work idea.

A well-acted and interesting dark comedy, but the convoluted writing becomes the big drawback.

| Original Score: 3/5 | May 31, 2004

Not real Irish, but the movie kind: the latest to stumble off the [John] Ford assembly-line.

| Original Score: 2/5 | May 28, 2004

It doesn't add up to much profundity and tries too hard to be amusingly quirky.

| Original Score: 2/5 | May 28, 2004

Such are the dangers of teaching foreign cultures to yelp like Reservoir Dogs.

Intermission may be more Love Actually-familiar than Robert Altman-intricate but is ultimately engaging on its own terms.
