Tiger Raid Audience Reviews

SpecialsTarget Disturbing yet enthralling
ChanFamous I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.
Humaira Grant It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.
Matylda Swan It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.
Andrew Mernagh Irish TV broke new ground in 2010 thanks to the writings of Stuart Carolan on RTE Love/Hate. Through the writings of Carolon and performances of Tom Vaughan-Lawlor, Killian Scott Irish television had entered a new era. That is how it feels when you watch Simon Dixon's script unfold here through the performances of Brian Gleeson and Damien Molony. My initial thoughts when watching it last night was like tragic Shakespeare play unfolding before me with a powerful performance by Brian Gleeson.He is his father's son when it comes to acting talent, simply brilliant. If it I had one criticism it would be the pace of how Dixon concludes the story. But outside of that cinematography captures the landscape beautifully, lighting and stunt coordination are also excellently executed. It would be unheard of before Love/Hate for an Irish co-production to attempt such a film. Well done to Simon Dixon and the team, looking forward to watching this space
cleishmains I just cannot understand why this film is generating 10* reviews. If constant yelling, bickering and swearing makes a good film then, yes, it's excellent but a poor plot, manufactured situations, some bizarre cut scenes and a set of most unlikely relationships makes this film depressing viewing along with 88 minutes I'll not get back. I found myself hoping that it might just turn the corner and go instantly from mediocre to brilliant in an instant but it never happened and I just ended up not bothering whether, in the end, A killed B, B killed A or C killed them both. Just not bothered.......
Jack Hunter This is kind of film where you just gotta use words such as "powerful" and "gripping". It has several very genre breaking plot twists and it was extremely refreshing experience after all the crappy AAA titles I saw this year.Film has only 4 characters. One of those 4 is in it for less than 10 seconds. Over 90% of screen time is just two guys ... talking. And if someone described this film to me that way I might not even have seen it. So, let us add that both guys are neurotic psychopathic killers, and rapists, who keep switching from close partners to trying to murder each other over and over.Throughout the film you really want to side with each of them at different points and its hard to decide which one, or perhaps both, or neither, should survive in the end. And just when you almost make up your mind, third character enters to complicate things further.Its a must see movie.Just see it.
s3276169 Tiger Raid is one of those maddening films that smolders but never burns.....Its frustrating watching this film as excellent performances are handed in by the cast. Performances made more impressive when you consider that the majority of the interaction takes place between two key characters, mostly in small enclosed spaces. There is so much potential in this film for a mercenary Middle Eastern take on a Usual Suspects meets Reservoir Dogs, hybrid mix. Sadly, the smoldering tension that builds and the questions that start to come to the surface, never ignite in a meaningful way. Instead, what is offered up, for the most part, feels nihilistic and empty. I know that's a message, in itself but it feels more than a little rhetorical, given the "money for hire killers" context.In my opinion, an admirable effort from the cast but the script leaves much to be desired. Seven out of ten from me.
