A heartwarming coming of age story

Brooklyn’s plot is fairly uncomplicated and straight forward, but it’s the execution that makes this film worth watching. It’s such a beautiful and heart warming tale of an Irish immigrant in America, filled with drama, sadness and even a bit of comedy. Saiorse Ronan is brilliant, and she’s the main reason why this film is worth watching. Emory Cohen too is simply adorable as Eilis’s American love interest and this relationship is so heart warming to watch.

My only criticism about this film is that Eilis’s return to Ireland seemed a little rushed and whilst the ending itself was fairly sweet and satisfying, I feel like they could’ve done much more with it.

Kudos

Not enough people have seen this!

Not many people I know have seen this so I tell everyone to give it a go.
A kids film, completely off the radar, as it's not branded (not pixar or disney etc) it's a German, Danish and Irish creation, about 3 children that take get into all sorts of problems. It bombed at the box office but it definitely didn't deserve the bad press, it's about family, loyalty, the importance of intelligence and a hint of magic.
It has funny, scary (for young kids anyway) , tense, lovable scenes that everyone can enjoy.
