Trivia
Despite being an American, Robert Lorenz decided to keep the film as authentically Irish as possible, not only employing an all-Irish cast, but also employing an all-Irish crew.

Goofs
During the opening couple minutes a Triumph 2500S is seen driving along a street and parking, the Triumph 2500S wasn't produced until 1975 so didn't exist in 1974 when this film is set,

Quotes
Finbar Murphy: There's more to me than this. I'd like people to see it.

7/10

A solid 7 because it's a decent Liam Neeson film at last.

In the land of Saints and Sinners is one of the better offerings from Liam Neeson which have been released in the last 5 or 6 years.

Set in Ireland at the time of 'The Troubles' it's pretty clear what you're going to get as soon as the film starts. And there won't be any twists and turns. But the film still entertains.

It moves along at a good pace and despite (Liam's character) Finbar being of a very dubious disposition we soon root for him against a gang of evil IRA bombers who have been blowing kids up.

The Irish scenery is beautiful and at times bleak.

The film manages to look and feel like a 70s story and the acting is very good from everyone involved.

This one is well worth a watch.

Entertaining and satisfying.

Great for a rainy night in.
