The movie was good but the story is very hard to follow. When I read about Micheal Collins in my history book in school it was easy to follow. This film makes all of that hard to follow. Another thing is why is there so many non-Irish in this film? Julia Roberts is from America (I guess they put her in so it would a worldwide release), than Alan Rickman who is from the UK. I also heard Tom Cruise and Kevin Costner were considered for this film. Even Micheal Collins is played by a guy from Northen Ireland. I have to respect this film because it's my country's history. But after 5 minutes I lose the plot. And another thing is PG? What the heck? Even though the IFCO rated it PG because of the historical matter this movie has strong language and violent scenes. Not one for the kiddies.
