Finally got around to this last night and I really enjoyed it. I think the trailer accurately depicted what it is about so if anyone is interested in seeing this film, check out the trailer.
I thought it was well written, well choreographed, and well acted. While I made the obvious connection between the war and the dynamic between the two main characters, I'm sure I missed some of the underlying metaphors throughout. More than anything, this film had a lot of feeling. It was also interesting to see how Colin Farrell's character developed throughout the story.
Two side thoughts:
* It was neat that the actress who played Siobhan was Mike's daughter from Better Call Saul
* Because of the setting, I kept waiting Father Dougal to show up.
Overall I'd highly recommend it.
