Thanks, Zola, for all the gifs. 
A couple more reviews for WOE:
Now, Peña and Skarsgård are here to give us their very best anti-heroes. Peña, as always, is a pleasure to watch. The cadence of his quick-fire delivery demands attention and his warm, mischievous smile is immediately ingratiating. And Skarsgård plays a wonderful straight man to Pena’s fast-talking, philosophical funny man. The tall, imposing Swede presents an oafish figure with slouched shoulders. It always appears as though he’s protecting himself and, as the film soon reveals, for good reason.
The two play off each other well, and this is the real highlight of the film.

Peña and Skarsgard make a better comedy team than I think anyone would have suspected when the Hollywood gods randomly drew their names from a hat and said, “OK, you be in a movie together.” Peña’s almost manic cheerfulness makes Bob impossibly likable, and is balanced by Skarsgard’s more subdued but equally lovable Terry. They’re clearly having fun, and it’s contagious.

I don't think these have been posted.
Peña and Skarsgård are a comedic dream team, as their chemistry effortlessly weaves together absurd ideas and crass conflicts. Skarsgård’s inner pain feeds off of Bob’s boisterous attitude, one being the muscle, and the other acting as hype man. I’ll admit, I thought Peña would severely overshadow Skarsgård, but Terry’s constant intoxication makes for a deeply complex character whose biggest moments involve throwing one knockout punch (that thugs continually underestimate). Peña rattles off a billion and one jokes, all of which stick, as ghetto rap blaring themes of authority play over heated chases, to downplay any seriousness around two signature McDonagh characters.
But, Peña was born to spout dickish comments followed by a coy, childish smile, while Skarsgård embraces his inner Mel Gibson, drunkenly beating his way through life’s toughest problems. These two were made for War On Everyone, as confirmed by a gut-busting highlight reel of biting hilarity.

Tku2 Henares, we certainly have had a fab few days with all the great Askars' images and news
Tku for the reviews, they're so good to read, especially with the continuing praise for Alex and Michael's onscreen chemistry, which if it's anything like that seen in the WoE pr, will be superb
Another great review
and I lv the red carpet i'view vids, Alex is always so considered and charming, absolutely gorgeous
