Donnybrook (2018)
3/10
Just not good enough
10 September 2021
Warning: Spoilers
The Good: Margaret Qualley and Frank Grillo. Both were awesome in their roles. Also, the deaths of certain characters were twists I didn't see coming.

The Bad: What was the deal with the deputy/cop? Never explained what his position of power was and why he decided to go after Angus on his own. He knew how dangerous Angus was but warned him that he was coming in the parking lot. He was out of range with his sawed off, but knew from the bartender that Angus had an elephant gun. Really?

This decent fighter thinks he can win this fight that pays $100k when the drug dealer kicked his butt in the second scene of the film? Does he think a bunch of pansies will be fighting for 100K?

The contrived "final matchup" between Jar and Angus. Angus had Jar done and this would never have been reversed. Angus was just too strong and too evil.

I debated between 3 stars (my highest rating for a poor movie) and 4 (my lowest rating for an okay movie) but had to go with 3. I would not recommend it to anyone.
