You never knew you needed Irish hiphop in your life

Brilliant comedy and great music. Never knew I was a fan of Irish hip-hop. As a Belgian, I certainly missed some of the specifically Northern Irish jokes, but there are so many that the film remains hilarious. Think Trainspotting, but more cheerful and with a school teacher and background politics.The energy and charisma of the Kneecap lads is truly infectious. Their performances, fuelled by a healthy dose of ketamine, bring very funny film scenes.But beyond just the music, the film does an excellent job of weaving in the complex social and political realities of life in Northern Ireland. The film depicts the lives of contemporary Belfast youth, who know the Troubles only from stories but have never experienced them themselves. The film tackles everything from the fun of substance use to the generational trauma of the Troubles with a blend of humour and poignancy.Overall, Kneecap is a rollicking good time that left me with a newfound appreciation for hip-hop and N-Ireland. This film is an absolute must-see, whether you're a fan of hip-hop or not. It's a raucous, heartfelt celebration of music, creativity, and the power of finding your voice, even in the midst of adversity. And now I suddenly want to learn Irish and perhaps visit Ireland too.

Awesome.

I had the pleasure of watching this movie at a film festival in Poland. I felt compelled to recover my IMDb account credentials just to share my thoughts because I believe the current reviews do not do it justice.No other film at the festival evoked as much laughter from the audience during the screening. While there were many remarkable films, this one stood out as my favorite. From what I've heard, the audience reaction at Sundance was similarly enthusiastic.If you're considering watching this movie, disregard the reviews below. True, it isn't an arthouse film, and it does advocate drug use, strong language, and police brutality. However, it is an absolute joy to watch. It conveys profound messages about the quest for freedom, self-expression, and defiance.Most importantly, this movie is authentic. The main characters are played by the musicians themselves (and they do a fantastic job). It may not be factually accurate, but it excels at conveying the feeling and authenticity without being phony or pretentious.This movie is pure punk, wrapped in a colorful and sweet package. I higly recommend it.
