What the hell made anyone want to watch this one I saw a good rating and thought why not. Boy was I wrong. Mickey Rourke plays an IRA bomber who accidentally blows up a school bus full of kids instead of the intended targets an army troop truck. When pushed to the brink he must do all that is necessary to get his freedom back. What was the director thinking when he thought this film was going to work. Did he oversleep the day his god gave out common sense? He had a non-blind person play one who also played the piano with shots showing she wasn't even close. Throughout the movie she looks directly into peoples eyes then later she's lighting candles. Why she's BLIND... Best of all Mickey R. sounds like a leprechaun from Lucky charmsville. Some of the acting was OK, but either the story was a pile crap or the director couldn't see the big scope. Anyway, it was a complete waste of time. By the end I wanted to smash my face onto the table next to me so it would all be over. Don't watch this unless you like movies that are more wrong than right.

Relatively boring Irish moral tale with funky accents, in a time where Mickey Rourke was still the hottest thing around and Liam Neeson reduced to cameo parts...

All right. I just finished watching this now, so it seems like a good place to start. Martin Fallon (Mickey Rourke) is an IRA terrorist who, in an attempt to blow up an army truck, ends up blasting a school bus. He becomes disillusioned and leaves the IRA, heading to London to obtain a passport and passage out of the country. He is met by Jack Meehan (Alan Bates) and his brother Billy (Christopher Fulford) who give him one last hit. He excecutes it, but is witnessed by Father Michael DaCosta (Bob Hoskins). So, Scotland Yard is after Fallon, Meehan is after DaCosta, and to make matters worse, the IRA want Fallon back something fierce. With nowhere else to turn, Fallon seeks absolution through DaCosta... It's a little hard to find, but definitely worth seeing. It hits all the bases: violence, suspense, emotional drama, and hits them quite well. It captures the spirit of Jack Higgins' novel perfectly. This movie gets my recomenndation, for sure. Just watch out for Rourke's deadly Irish accent, worse than Richard Gere's in The Jackal.

Tense, Completely original and well-acted.
