Ireland, 1970s. Eager to leave his dark past behind, Finbar Murphy (Liam Neeson) leads a quiet life in the remote coastal town of Glencolmcille, far from the political violence that grips the rest of the country. But when a menacing crew of terrorists arrive, led by a ruthless woman named Doirean (Kerry Condon), Finbar is drawn into an increasingly vicious game of cat and mouse, forcing him to choose between exposing his secret identity or defending his friends and neighbors.

Critics Consensus

Well-written and classically constructed, In the Land of Saints and Sinners is one of the better action thrillers Liam Neeson's made in recent years.

I liked that it starred Liam Neeson. One of my favorite actors but this movie was a disappointment as it had too many F bombs, not by him but the other actors. If I didn't have my parents with me, it wouldn't have bothered me as much. Also, the Irish brogue was very thick and dialogue was very often lost on us.

Interesting info of that time period in Ireland however we were left with questions as to what individuals were targeted by the IRA and what they had done.

Robbie Collin

Daily Telegraph (UK)

As such, there’s a find-and-replace quality to aspects of the writing... But such stock roles are geed up by performances that are stronger than they had to be.

Rated: 3/5

Financial Times

Neeson is as sturdy as ever in a role Clint Eastwood might have played 20 years ago and a few thousand miles away. And Condon excels, giving a stock character a shudder of intensity and three dimensions.

Rated: 3/5

Peter Bradshaw

Guardian

There’s bits and pieces of entertaining stuff here, a few sharp lines and a gonzo final shootout, but the overall tone of cliche is a bit wearing...

Rated: 2/5

Mark Jackson

Epoch Times

Like Brad Pitt’s line in 'The Devil’s Own': 'It's not an American story—it's an Irish one,' 'Saints and Sinners' features an all-Irish cast doing IRA things.

Rated: 3.5/5

Irish Independent

It’s a good laugh overall, and one of big Liam’s better action vehicles.

Eye for Film

With plenty of meat for its fine cast to chew on, the film is often intense but never loses its nuance.
