Starring Oscar-nominee Barry Keoghan (Saltburn, The Banshees of Inisherin) and Christopher Abbott (Possessor, Sanctuary), BRING THEM DOWN is a tense and gripping thriller about two warring families set against the harsh landscape of rural west Ireland. When the ongoing rivalry between farmers Michael (Abbott) and Jack (Keoghan) suddenly escalates, it triggers a chain of events that take increasingly violent and devastating turns, leaving both families permanently altered. From first-time filmmaker Christopher Andrews and co-starring Colm Meaney, Paul Ready and Nora-Jane Noone, this is a fierce, muscular debut that signals a bold new cinematic voice.

Jordan Mintzer The Hollywood Reporter Bring Them Down is so grim that it can be something of a chore to sit through. But there’s enough tension and underlying adrenaline to keep one hooked for at least an hour. Oct 30, 2024 Full Review Tim Robey Daily Telegraph (UK) The film brings us down, as well as letting itself down somewhat... the ending too vague. But the jangling escalations of the first half still mark Andrews out as a name to watch. Rated: 3/5 Oct 21, 2024 Full Review Richard Whittaker Austin Chronicle Andrews does get the broad strokes and details of this kind of rural life right enough to still remain engaging. Oct 1, 2024 Full Review Manuela Lazic Cineuropa Bring Them Down however remains a promising debut feature, especially for its playfully constructed script that turns the thriller genre inside-out to place real human feeling at its centre. Nov 22, 2024 Full Review Dennis Schwartz Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews The bleak drama might be a little too woolly for some. Rated: B- Nov 18, 2024 Full Review Simon Thompson Battle Royale With Cheese Bring Them Down is a nearly pitch-black drama boosted by a strong cast, a solid script, and fundamentally sound directing. If you’re into crime-family drama and want something a little bit off the beaten track, then this might just be the movie for you. Nov 17, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews
