Set in Ireland during the Great Famine, the drama follows an Irish Ranger who has been fighting for the British Army abroad, as he abandons his post to reunite with his family. Despite experiencing the horrors of war, he is shocked by the famine's destruction of his homeland and the brutalization of his people and his family. (Shout! Factory)

A pretty decent walk through Ireland occupied by the British with all the horrors that go with it. The protagonist is a likeable guy and he's pretty handy in action, working quite well with a knife. Hugo Weaving is traditionally decent. The film got rather cheaper visuals, some chilly weather and scenery, the finale is pretty action packed. Definitely interesting to watch and learn about Irish history. 6/10.
