  Likeable Characters - easy and enjoyable to watch

  "It's My Wick And I'll Go Out In Flames If I Want To" !!!
  
  Set in Ireland, 'Cowboys And Angels' shows both the humorous and lonely side of trying to settle in a new Town on your own.

  Dont be fooled by the cover this is a boring film!
  
  Poor film. Thought that I would give it a watch, wished I had not now. Very wooden acting, and a unrealistic story which the main characters never really seemed... read more »

  Meh, it's ok
  
  Film is ok, not brilliant. The plot is a little too spread. Is it a drug film? Is it a coming of age film? Is it a romance?

  Move on, nothing to see here
  
  Terrible acting except from the lead, crap script, worn storyline, full of stereotypes, didn't make it past half way. Next!

  Amusing rather than funny, good but not great
  
  Likeable characters well acted. Amusing, rather than particularly funny or gay, this film gently raises some issues, and makes for easy watching.

  Cowboys and Angels
  
  The acting was a bit wooden, the plot a bit wobbly and very sterotypical of gay people. I also thought that Limerick doesn't look like a very nice city.read more »

  A simple but charming drama
  
  Perhaps I'm hard to please, but I wouldn't call this a comedy. There are funny moments, but you get funny moments in any film. This film did move me to ... read more »

  Cowboys and Angels
  
  I don't normally go out of my way to review a film but I feel an exception must be made for Cowboys and Angels.

  A breath of fresh air
  
  Although it sounds like the premise for a formulaic sitcom, Cowboys and Angels turns out to be something entirely different. It uses its characters as people, ... read more »

  Glad I didn't buy it
  
  I'm rather surprised this is sold as a comedy--excruciatingly funny it is not. But then it's sold as a gay film too, and it's not that either! I can... read more »

  Worth seeing, the film doesnt follow the easy arthouse or little film route. It doesnt make the typical mistakes or disappear up its stereotyped bum. A good ... read more »
