Very funny and extremely violent. ( )

Set in a 1993 rural Ireland of dead cats, IRA splinter groups, dead-eye teenage girls with air rifles and the funniest kind of madness, this is the best play I’ve read in recent memory. Would love to see a production. ( )

i just wanted to give it 4 stars just because it's not as good as "pillowman"...but it has In Bruges's Violence and it was so funny like other Mcdonagh's stage-plays and screenplays... so i should give it all 5 stars ( )

Mordant, hilarious. An extended riff on the absurdity of violence as a solution to much of anything. ( )

McDonagh has often been compared (especially by himself) to Quentin Tarantino, and it certainly shows here. The violence is so absurd that all you can do is laugh. Or at least, I suppose you would-- stuff like this doesn't work so well on the printed page. McDonagh's hilarious dialogue continues to shine, though. I really want to see this performed. I want to see all of his plays performed.
