DVD Review – May 2018 – Mark David Hatwood

Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri – Starring Frances McDormand, Sam Rockwell and Caleb Landry Jones Directed by Martin McDonagh

Mother, Mildred (McDormand) becomes frustrated at the local police force’s ineptitude to solve her daughter’s murder. When no potential perpetrators have been identified and the investigation slowly grinds to a halt, she decides to take matters into her own hands to ensure that the media, local citizens and the police take her plight seriously and find her daughter’s killer.

There’s little I can add about this phenomenal film that hasn’t already been said or written in some shape of form. Superb performances by all of the magnificent cast, a solid and believable story with twists turns that keep your engrossed and a dark humour running through an already moving story… truly a to delight and I shall be watching it a third time very soon!

Verdict: One of the year’s best films, if not the best. *****

This film will be shown at The Harbour Club Portscatho on Tuesday 22nd May
