The thing is so broad the curvature of the earth hides one edge from the other.

A frantically overdone film that's all over the place.

Fionnuala Halligan

Screen International

Based around Dublin's Finglas area and featuring some of its locals, Deadly Cuts makes up for in spirit what it clearly lacks in budget.

Andrew Stover

Film Inquiry

Inheriting a fair amount of pawky wit and effective parody, there is a lot to like about Rachel Careys feature debut.

Kat Halstead

Common Sense Media

It's the warmth and likability of this movie's characters that helps style out what is otherwise an enjoyable but inconsistent and old-fashioned comedy.

Rated: 3/5

James Croot

Stuff.co.nz

While events follow a predictable path, there is an unexpected sting in the tale that ensures this is more than just a typical competition-underdog-attempts-to-upset-the-odds conceit.

Rated: 3.5/5
