I Went Down is simply a masterpiece of Irish cinema, and by all accounts it stands up superbly anywhere in the world as a hilarious, dark, suspenseful film with more twists than either side of Princess Leia's head. The two main leads, Brendan Gleeson and Peter McDonald, are both new to starring roles (McDonald is in his first role in films) but it never shows in either performance. The whole cast works with extreme confidence and style and with the material, why not? There are more memorable scenes in I Went Down than in the average cinematic year. This is possibly one of the top films of all time. Unmissable.
