They also tee up a Mick McCarthy line earlier in the movie when he says, your country, sorry, our country.
Yeah.
What's that about?
There probably is, but off the top of my head.
I just want to bring up one point that Ronan raised there.
It might inform, I think, some of the categories.
I want to get your thoughts on this.
I thought my big criticism of this movie was I thought that tonally it was all over the place.
Like some scenes were so dramatic and tense.
Some scenes were like terrible fodder to head on steroids, slapstick gone wrong.
Set piece comedy.
Set piece comedy, cringy.
And then some of it was like, I think if they had chopped all the humor out of the movie, I think it would have been like 80% better.
If they had honestly just leaned into the drama of the situation, got rid of all the music, literally had no soundtrack, got rid of the guy from The Young Offenders who played an FAI suit, who walks into the bar and accidentally says, oh, Roy Keane's gone home.
There was so much dumb humour in it, interspersed with that Keane moment on the training ground I mentioned that was electric.
And I'm like, what's going on in this film?
Like, in fact, I actually saw, I was just doing a little research earlier, like Deadline did a positive review and called it like a sports comedy.
Like that's what they came away from with.
And I'm not surprised because some of it's like twiddly de-Irish humor.
Like, you know, I'm sure I just wanted to say this first before we get to another FAI characters and stuff.
