Requiem for a Fighter (2018)
Fun but flawed
Requiem for a Fighter follows Michael a former all Ireland Champion boxer, when tragedy strikes and he get injured. Added into that mix he is also a closet Gay person.
The Writers and Director have most certainly brought Michael's charm back into the ring by bringing a fascinating boxing drama to the big screen. Even though it may have a all to familiar ending when it comes to the formulaic boxing aspect, this film really smooths out well with such heavenly storytelling, we are given a accurate accusation of how secrets can affect someone in the hardest way possible.
Grayson Matthews giving a ferocious performance as a character hiding a large part of his personality. He really stuck to his character by bringing such to the ring. One person other than Michael that really stood out was Glenn Tilley as the Doctor, he easily gives an amazing performances!
I was not bored at all with Requiem, I was invested the whole time. Even with its fight clichés, the film surely beats them down with mighty performances by its lead and supporting cast and cosmic storytelling. The drama was foretold fluently with a good take at how a family can fall apart and reconnect in such a turn of events over one members secret. I loved that, it flowed along so ideally with a strong tone. In the end Requiem is surely a spellbinding film towards a strong man that doesn't get knocked down by what life has to swing at him!
The Irish Connection (2022)
Fun and wildly entertaining
Aureille Fleming (Rosa Coduri) is a special agent chasing the bad guys, but who is the real bad guy. The plot was simple enough to follow and had some wonderfully funny scenes. The cast were all brilliant in their roles and I laughed out loud quite a few times, but best was the Landlady scene, but youll have to watch for that one.
