"It's no Trainspotting (1996) but Kneecap is still a fun ride and worth a watch."

"Absolutely one of the best movies I’ve seen to come out this year. Great touch that the biopic is played by the actual trio. The movie touches on points of the divide of Ireland and Northern Ireland with heavy focus on the divide in the north itself. Beautiful groundbreaking cinema for the Irish and a great example of getting to use their native tongue on a larger platform. "

"I was pleasantly surprised after watching this film. The cinematography was very creative and super clean. The film had tons of heart and at the same time balls to the wall crazy. It exposes a side of Ireland that doesn't really get talked about in mainstream media. The main cast had great chemistry throughout the entire movie, and it's always nice seeing Michael Fassbender pop up in these quirky films. Kneecaps was a unique, dark, yet funny film that anyone can enjoy! "

"Heard about this movie, which got some good reviews. Gave it a shot and really enjoyed this. It's very different for me, but this movie just has a really cool vibe! It's worth a watch something different."

"Surprised me on how good this film was. A funny tale of low life druggies who turn into rappers who rap in their native Irish language and starts a civil movement, definitely not something I would’ve seen myself looking forward seeing. Not only is it a fun and funny movie, but it’s also played by the actually rap group itself, which I think is a nice touch."

"Funny, fresh, an absolute riot. The characters are lovable, hateable, charming, and despicable all at the same time. Surprisingly great performances from the band who aren't even actors. "

"This movie was absolutely fascinating! The cinematic elements were so appealing and well done. At first, I was a little skeptical, not knowing much Irish history, but by 20ish minutes in, I was glued. Definitely hilarious, relatable, and gut wrenching. A must see for any history buff, music lover, and the like"
