The Plot section of the article appears to be either from a studio press release or lifted from either contactmusic.com or geeksofdoom.com. The second link lists the copy as the "Official Synopsis" so I'm fairly certain it is from the studio. I'm going to add it to Wikipedia:Copyright problems. — A 03:56, 16 December 2007 (UTC)
Huh? How can a film "premiere" at the Dublin Film Festival on Feb 15 having shown in January at Sundance and opening all over the U.S. on Feb 8th? This should at least qualify this with "Irish premiere". Even then, are all of these dates really that important? Most movie articles just list the premiere and/or a single general release date. This would make the Sundance date the most appropriate. 216.94.11.2 ( talk) 20:41, 11 April 2008 (UTC)

Clémence Poésy, Ralph Fiennes, and Brendan Gleeson have all been in a Harry Potter film. Is this merely a coincidence, or is there some significant connection? - wjs23
I'm not sure if the plot is correct. I just finished watching the film and it says on wiki that he loses consciousness with his fate unknown. I will say that I got the impression his fate was unknown but is there word from the directors that going from first person to black and credits indicates losing consciousness? Also, its interesting that his last thoughts in the film are in an ambiguous tense eg. "I really hoped I wouldn't die."
Perhaps the part about losing consciousness should be removed.--

I don't think that Anna Madeley is in this film at all. A character called Denise is credited on IMDB and on the end credits on the DVD as being played by Anna Madeley. I think Denise is supposed to be Harry Waters' wife who shouts at him and then worries about him going to Belgium. But that character was certainly not played by the actress Anna Madeley who looks nothing like her. I can only assume that the mistake was made by the filmmakers and put onto the DVD credits which were then copied to IMDB in the same order and thence to this article. Can anyone identify who DID play Harry's wife? It is someone who is at least 45 whereas Anna Madeley was born in 1977 and looks it. -- LeedsKing ( talk) 23:54, 6 March 2009 (UTC)

The film has an Irish writer and director. The two lead characters are Irish, and are portrayed by Irish actors. It's entirely appropriate to describe the film as Irish, as per the source given. Alohamesamis ( talk) 21:28, 6 January 2013 (UTC)

I have found sources which describe it as an Irish film, McDonagh himself calls it such. The Theatre and Films of Martin McDonagh p136 World Film Locations: Dublin p46 describes it as an Irish film. this source infers it is Irish. Boston Globe says it is Irish. Why not have it as both?

The reception part of the article mentions some negative reviews but doesn't include a single substantial negative quote from a review. All chosen quotations praise the film, especially the acting.

Apparently Matt Smith played Harry Watters in a deleted scene. If we can verify this, would it be able to be added to the cast list? 192.249.47.186 ( talk) 13:48, 21 April 2014 (UTC)
In the outtakes on the DVD, there was a scene that wound up on the cutting room floor. In that scene, it is implied that Harry was abused as a child by the priest that was the target. The film makes a lot more sense with that scene, as it sets up why the priest was being executed, and the motivation for why Harry was so upset about a child getting killed. This might get mentioned in the article. -- Grr ( talk) 23:31, 23 April 2015 (UTC)
A recent edit seems to express the view that the events described at the very did not appear in the film. But I'm rather certain they did... at least in the version I saw several months ago.

The Plot section has a hidden note saying: "Plot must remain below 700 per WP:FILMPLOT. Work within the limit.” This recent addition, however, has now taken the word count to 938. Martinevans123 ( talk) 16:06, 17 July 2017 (UTC)
Why is TheOldJacobite adding a border to the poster (which doesn't have straight edges)? It's like the Hook (film) poster. Adding a straight border is nonsensical. — Film Fan 00:06, 29 January 2018 (UTC)
TheOldJacobite, can you please stop reverting and use the talk page? I write you a message, you ignore it, so obviously I restore the article to how it should be. I've written to you here, and twice on your own talk page. You haven't explained why you added the border to a transparent image. I HAVE clearly explained why I removed the border. If you don't at least engage in a conversation, you have no leg to stand on. Do it. Thanks. — Film Fan 18:20, 29 January 2018 (UTC)
