I thought it was fantastic. Very funny and realistic despite being 'theatrical'. The way the characters spoke to each other was very real whilst the acting was unreal if that makes any sense. I found it scarily depressing in some points: Charlie for example particularly the scene with Barney and his mother at the building-site bonfire where cruelly told him his whole life was basically a lie was. Winstone's 'sole-Englishman' role was brilliant. Was also good seeing day-to-day Glasgow locations looking other-wordly

This movie is dark and hilarious and should have received much wider acclaim for its originality and exceptional acting. I recommend it to all my friends.

Die Legende von Barney Thomson ist eine britische

Die Legende von Barney Thomson ist eine britische schwarze Komödie von Robert Carlyle, der außerdem die Hauptrolle übernahm. Der Film basiert nach einem Roman von Douglas Lindsay. Wer den englischen Humor liebt, ist bei „Die Legende von Barney Thomson" auf den richtigen Weg… Robert Carlyle inszenierte eine herrliche Komödie, mit deftigen „schwarzen" Einschüben. Emma Thompson ist einfach hervorragend und überlegen als Cemolina, ja Emma Thompson stiehlt allen die Show!
