In a similar vein to Human Traffic, but... - Kneecap review by TB
I watched this because they've been in the news recently...
Not bad, but didn't really grab me.. in a similar vein to Human Traffic (set in Northern Ireland).. but with politics, and not as funny...
It also probably doesn't help that I can't think of any rap music I like after about the mid-90s. So inevitably I wasn't a fan of the soundtrack; although to contradict that, rapping in Irish does actually have an appeal.
