Avis en vedette
Dead Shot, while showing the violence of the period, manages to bring out a humanity in the characters that breaks the heart
The film is splendid
Dark, hard, heartbreaking and the cast does a great job, first and foremost a Colin Morgan who again shows his innate gifts and comes on screen as Michael and not as an actor acting, bringing out his immense pain.
Sometimes I just don't understand with whose eyes films are viewed Inspired by the novel The road to Balcombe Street by SP Moysey, about the real events of 1975, Dead Shot catapults us into the darkness of the period
Dead shot deserves the 5 stars I have nothing more to add.

An eye for an eye leaves the whole world blind.
This seems to be the very brutal message in Dead Shot. This is what the critics would call gritty realism, but I just call it honest film making. It gives us a glimpse into the warring factions of governments and rebels and the men that will take it too far to see it through. Charles and Thomas Guard.keep us sometimes uncomfortably close to these people and their brothers in arms as characters on both sides watch what they started fighting for transition to new bosses and directives until the lines have been blurred so much that you wonder who, if anyone we should be rooting for. It is an excellent lesson in grief and revenge, and well worth the watch.

"I killed her"
A sentence that sums up the meaning of the film
Colin Morgan once again manages not to act but to transform himself into Michael
Intense
Strong
Hard
Harrowing
Excellently brought to the stage by the whole cast
Inspired by the novel The road to Balcombe Street by SP Moysey, about the real events of 1975, Dead Shot catapults us into the darkness of the period
Dead Shot takes you in this darkness for 90 minutes and you're there you stop breathing A truly worthy cast, with the two main characters falling into a trap of revenge, terror or hatred A trap created by the political rot that surrounds them The hatred, the horror, the bombs, the suffering envelop you quickly, perhaps too quickly, 30 minutes more would have been good.
But this does not make the film lose too much, thanks also to the remarkable skill of a Colin Morgan who manages, each time, to convey a soul to the character.

Firstly, as a movie, this is quite entertaining and they have certainly nailed the 70s vibe with the vehicles and fashions etc.
The action is good and overall, the acting is better than average, making for an enjoyable viewing experience.
The story, whilst nothing new, is delivered well enough that you start to build some empathy for the characters involved. Violence seldom improves a situation and perpetual violence is a difficult cycle to break, particularly when you have a personal motivation.
What I don't understand, particularly given the attention to detail with vehicles etc, is why the main military character is described as "An SAS Officer" in the synopsis.
Firstly, he is wearing Sergeant stripes, so he's an NCO, not an officer. Furthermore, there is no mention at any point of the SAS, unless I somehow missed it.
Overall, a good movie and well worth a watch.

First they need to change the marque it is not about a girl but about two men on different sides.
In the early 1970s, O'Hara, an IRA member, is ambushed while taking his pregnant wife to the hospital and his wife is accidentally shot by a British soldier named Tempest. Tempest is promoted for his shooting skills and transferred to London to hunt down IRA members. O'Hara also heads to London, where he reunites with his girlfriend and seeks revenge against Tempest, putting his girlfriend in danger. The story follows O'Hara's pursuit of revenge.
It slow pace but worth watching all the way through. It is rated a six because some of the characters were not developed well enough though we understand much of the the why they do what they do.

Le saviez-vous
- AnecdotesFilmed in the famous Barrowlands markets in Glasgow
- GaffesThe IRA terrorists mainly use WW2 vintage MP-40 sub-machine guns. Although Irish terrorists were committing atrocities with these weapons in the 1950s and early 1960s, by the time that this film is set - mid 1970s - Irish-American supporters had been providing them with large quantities of modern American weapons for some years, and they would be more likely to be using Armalites, of which they had been provided several thousand the Irish-American supporters or AK-47s supplied by Libya, than heavy, unreliable, and elderly WW2 antiques.
