Michael Collins (1996)
MEDIUM LEVEL VIOLENCE, MEDIUM LEVEL COARSE LANGUAGE
| Director: | Neil Jordan |
| Actors: | Julia Roberts, Liam Neeson, Aidan Quinn, Alan Rickman, Stephen Rea |
Michael Collins, the man and the movie, stands tall. The man is a hero whose fighting tactics became a model for other 20th-century struggles, a statesman who negotiated Ireland's break with England, a political martyr slain for the great cause he lived and breathed. With Liam Neeson playing the title role the movie is an epic triumph. Aidan Quinn, Stephen Rea, Alan Rickman and Julia Roberts also deliver vivid performances.

great bit of history. The copy I got sent was a flipper, so I had to get up half way and turn the DVD over to watch the 2nd half of the movie, who ever thought that was a good idea, wasn't a deal break for me.

powerful and moving performance by Liam Neeson - interesting insight into the Irish Civil War

Great movie. Excellent performances by all. If this is how it really was then who can blame the Irish for what they did?
Siobhan W.
says
some would venture this film is a somewhat more theatrical account rather than factual account of this man's story and of what actually occurred during this period in Ireland

A well-constructed and well-acted depiction of the role of Michael Collins (and Eamon de Valera) in "liberating" Ireland. The background feature on the DVD is really interesting, and is honest about Michael Collins being a controversial hero.
