Eigentlich ist Damians Laufbahn als Mediziner vorbestimmt und sein Zugticket nach London gelöst. Als er jedoch Zeuge eines feigen Mordes der britischen Armee wird, entschließt sich der junge Ire einer Bewegung anzuschließen, die sein Bruder anführt. Als Revolutionäre ziehen sie in den Krieg um für ihr Land und Gerechtigkeit zu kämpfen. Schonungslos gegenüber sich selbst und dem Feind agieren die ernannten Helden. Dabei erhalten sie Unterstützung durch die verarmte und ausgehungerte Bevölkerung, die mit Rat, Tat und Waffen zur Seite steht. Aber schon bald müssen beide Brüder erkennen das ihr Kampf aussichtslos, und auch ihre Ansichten nicht mehr die Selben sind. Und schon im nächsten Bürgerkrieg stehen sich Beide als erbitterte Feinde gegenüber.

    Intense and heartbreaking story about two brothers whose strained relationship is tested during two conflicts, the Irish war of independence and the following Irish Civil War. It is interesting to see the history of this conflict fleshed out since outside of Ireland and the UK the details and intricacies of this conflict is little known.

    An interesting, personal look at the times leading up to the Irish Civil War. Not the usual treatment of history that focuses on the big picture and paints with a broad brush. Very intimate approach with well developed characters. Fairly adequate depiction of the terrorism visited on the population by the tans. For those that do not know Irish history, it could be a bit confusing about their origin, thus only 4 stars. Still would recommend the film.

    This film, featuring a fictional plot set against historic events, is both entertaining and educational. I came away having enjoyed the story, while learning history about the Irish War of Independence (from Britain) and the ensuing civil war that would lead to a divided Ireland. Good movie for the drama hungry and the knowledge thirsty.

    Man, the English are truly inept lol we gotta stop letting stupid people colonize Hilarious that the loss of life didn’t change his mind but the emotional damage done to a train did Young Dylan would have loved showing this to his Catholic-“hating” friends growing up lol Some unnatural, tacky dialogue at some crucial moments unfortunately Yeah uh if a landlord gives a predatory loan with 500% interest, they are essentially asking to be murdered The emotional impact of fighting back is immense and I’m sure it would have made a real impact on me if the dialogue didn’t occasionally take me out of it completely! Borders aren’t real! Stop fixating on them!! Our aversion to globalism will certainly accelerate the demise of humanity! Damien freaking out on the loyalist army for killing Dan was so funny. Absolutely terrible scene. Would honestly embrace an ideological civil war at this point. End it - one way or another lolol Some high highs and some low lows!
