Waking Ned Divine

I rented this movie this weekend and LOVED it. It\'s a little off beat in that it is set in a tiny (pop. 52) town in Ireland- not your usual setting for a charming and surprising comedy. The actors are perfectly cast, especially for the secondary character of Michael O\'Sullivan. The plot revolves around a winning lottery ticket and a dead man but it\'s not stupid or morbid like Weekend at Bernies. Even though it\'s easy to predict what the main plot points are after reading the jacket, it\'s still huge fun to actually see how they get there. Make sure to watch the motorcycle / car race back to Ned\'s house at least twice! You won\'t believe your eyes! One drag on the fun: a stupid love story that isn\'t necessary for the real action. That led to a little (BECAUSE RAMPY USED FAULTY CODING, THE REMAINDER OF THIS REVIEW WAS CUT OFF. SORRY, PLEASE SEND RAMPY THE REST AND MAYBE HE'LL FIX IT.) :P
