If you like silly drugged up comedies from Ireland, I think you’ll like this gem of irish cinema.

Since yesterday was paddys day.
Kneecaps stands out as one of the most captivating music biopics I've ever seen. What truly sets it apart is that the actors are the real-life rappers themselves, adding an undeniable layer of authenticity to the story. While the film embraces exaggeration, every element—from the visuals to the pacing to the performances—feels intentional and impactful.
The striking cinematography immerses viewers in the world of the artists, with dynamic shots that match the rhythm of their music. The pacing never falters, keeping you engaged while still allowing room for quieter, reflective moments. The performances are raw and natural, a testament to the artists' comfort in playing versions of themselves.
Beyond its entertainment value, Kneecaps serves as a powerful advocate for the Irish language. The film doesn’t shy away from blending humor, drama, and cultural commentary, reinforcing the importance of preserving heritage through art. While I may not align with everything the artists stand for, there’s something undeniably admirable about their unapologetic authenticity.
Five stars for me 🙂↕️

funny documentary about a working class midwestern guy just trying to get his film made. feels like a mockumentary but it’s real. bittersweet with a looming sadness, but if anything it’s hopeful. definitely inspired napoleon dynamite and hot rod
one of my new favorites methinks…

even though it also made me cry, this movie really made me laugh. Especially the scene with the statue, but also a lot of other times. No big comedy punchlines, just the funny awkwardness of daily human existence.
Kieran Culkin is such a funny actor, I had a huge crush on Roman Roy. love that also in this movie, even though his characters carry a sadness/heaviness, they’re still super witty and playful.

This woman works long shifts in what I assume to be some sort of late night establishment (bar/club et) so I will cut her some slack for coming in at this ungodly hour….
HOWEVER IF YOU HAVE TO USE YOUR BLOODY HAIRDRYER PLEASE DONT LEAVE THE BATHROOM DOOR OPEN AND DO IT IN YOUR ROOM WITH THE DOOR CLOSED. ALSO PLEASE DONT TAKE 3 SEPERATE SHOWERS AND USE THE HAIRDRYER 3 SEPERATE TIMES.
