This Irish crime drama does a good job of depicting the vicious cycle of hardship and crime and the judgement women face from men, women, shopkeepers, the authorities - everyone - but there are hard-to-believe aspects to the situation Sarah, a mum of two young children, finds herself in at the start, and something unlikely about the crime that sets off her grisly journey to protect her kids and find out the truth of her husband's murder in a housing project, and the movie ends on a wilful, gleeful and unlikely climax engineered for thrills rather than realism, detracting from the bleak social crime drama that precedes it.
★★★☆☆
