Neeson gives an excellent performance as Michael Collins. A truly gripping political drama with top notch acting.

What a story. Really captures the intensity and tumult of the times. I kind of wish this film was longer, as the condensed length makes it a bit choppy at certain points. Also, Julia Roberts was disappointing in this. Still, very well done. I learned a lot.

Good cast with the exception of Roberts who stuck out like a sore thumb. I'm interested in the topic so that probably made it better but overall a great film.

Surprisingly aimless direction from Neil Jordan, a bland Neeson performance that captures nothing of either the charm or the infuriating bully boy nature of Collins, and Julia Roberts is woefully out of place. In fact, the only things I like about this movie are 1) Alan Rickman's spot-on performance as the cold and calculating De Valera and 1) the recreation of the British armored car attack on Croke Park.

Roberts is ultimately the weak point here, being both foregrounded and underused by the script, and sometimes it suffers from having to move a little too quickly to cover the necessary ground; having said that, it's a fine tale well told, with Neeson and Rickman putting in wonderfully nuanced performances that rightly make this one of Irish cinema's most lauded biopics.

It's alright, but unfortunately doesn't really make it's way over average. The cast is very impressive though. Far too long for it to really be worth watching, unless you're particularly interested in the subject.

Julia Robert's accent is the only thing that stops this from getting a 100. Very well done, very well acted, fairly historically accurate (as far as a dramatic movie can get) and just...good.

Well-made historical drama. Jordan is smart enough to banish Julia Roberts to the sidelines so that she doesn't do too much damage (a common trait of the few good films in which Ms. Roberts appears)
