New/old still from WOE, via a review from a Toronto After Dark film festival showing from last month:
"As crass as Bolaño and Monro are, McDonagh manages to provide the characters with a genuine sense of morality and respect for family, as thin a line as it may be. This helps to distinguish their motivations from those of Mangan and his right-hand man Birdwell (played with full gusto by Caleb Landry Jones). Whether or not the pair of unruly cops stop Mangan is not really as important as watching them bumble their way through the process. It helps that Skarsgård and Peña are clearly having a ball in the lead roles. They ensure the film remains entertaining even in its most outlandish moments. The supporting cast, which include Tessa Thompson, Stephanie Sigman and Paul Reiser, also assist in keeping the laughs moving at a brisk pace so that the story never overstays its welcome."
