Much better than rating suggests

Frankly, too many IMDb critics are expecting "films" instead of movies,because viewed simply on its entertainment merits, "Intermission" wasone of the better movies of 2003.There is no "cinematic" brilliance here. It's not a pretty thing playedby thespians to pander to Cannes film snobs, but the movie is funny ashell.Colin Farrell fans might be disappointed, because he's really just abit player, though a quite good one. But Colm Meaney is absurdly good,and the movie as a whole is prepossessing and original. Qualitywork - Think Guy Ritchie meets "The Full Monty."

score 9/10
