Bad Day for the Cut (2017)

Bad Day for the Cut: Directed by Chris Baugh. With Nigel O’Neill, Susan Lynch, Józef Pawlowski, Stuart Graham. A middle-aged Irish farmer, who still lives at home with his mother, sets off on a mission of revenge when his mother is murdered.

“This is a quirky action comedy thriller. A middle aged irish farmer, Donal still lives with his mum. One night assassins turns up at the farm and kill his mum. Donal is in the garage at the time and sees one of the assassins as he leaves but only before discovering what happened to mum in the house. Donal goes on a journey of revenge with a van and a 12 bore shotgun. The reason for the assassin unfolds as the movie progresses and it isnu0026#39;t fully revealed until very near the end. This adds to the suspense but it does bring with it some confusion.nThe inclusion of the comedy allows some, what would otherwise be implausible situations to arise and so lead to a more eventful and entertaining film. The movie is quite tense in parts and the bits of comedy donu0026#39;t spoil that. I was going to rate it at 6.5 but Iu0026#39;ll round up to 7 for itu0026#39;s refreshing change to the usual Hollywood take on this genre.nMy rating 7/10nRecommended”
