Or, Nuns with Guns, as Q would have it. As far as I recall, I haven't seen a gun battle in a church before. Written by Preston Thompson, I guess the director's son, who we know from Fragile / Ealing films mainly as a producer (St Trinian's, An Ideal Husband). This is great fun, somewhat in the McDonagh style, as a spunky girl, played with full wattage by Olivia Cooke, takes control of a drugs situation that friends Ben Hardy and Daryl McCormack have got themselves in to. With Colm Meaney her hard nut father, Turlough Convery her step-brother, Fra Fee, Alec Baldwin, Sebastian de Souza, Dylan Moran.
