Look, I loved this movie, as far as it went. But it felt much too short. A completely engrossing, authentic, beautiful, honest, and important film- both esthetically and substance matter-wise. But (without spoiling it) the ending is heartwrenching and abrupt. And there's no real conclusion. The viewer must draw up a conclusion of his/her own, I suppose, through a combination of research and intuition. It was beautiful, it could have been better (hence the 6, whose description is exactly that) Be warned-- this film is not for everyone. People who can't connect with violent situations or have a hard time with colloquial British (esp. Irish) accents will have difficulty appreciating the story and viewing experience-- trust me, there were a few perplexed comments in the cinema throughout and after the film.
