O'Rowe... evokes both a theatrical and literary sense of narrative, with scenes effectively unfolding like well-honed chapters.

Mark O'Rowe will undoubtedly direct a brilliant piece of cinema someday. The Delinquent Season is not it.

Rated: 2/5

Bay Area Reporter

Volatile and a tad short in the love-and-understanding department, Scott becomes one of the wronged parties in the movie's equation...

Seventh Row

[Cillian] Murphy is fascinating as a well-meaning man who is regularly a jerk, and the film slowly excavates his psychology; Murphy is especially still in this, as other people orbit around him and push his life in various directions.

Movie Nation

This Irish drama has little new to add to the illicit love affair genre, but is still sympathetically scripted and emotionally acted

Rated: 2.5/4

[Delinquent Season] acutely highlights the fragile nature of modern relationships through extremely human and engaging characters.

I just watched this movie it seems I can't stop thinking about it. I truly think that Jim loved Yvonne she told him to go away and he did now she wants him back what did she think he was going to put his life on hold . I truly think that Orla loves him I don't know if he loves her I just want him to be happy. His life was a mess for a long time now Yvonne know's the pain that Jim felt what goes around comes around.

This review is a spoiler. I find Cillian Murphy to be quite a beautiful man and am a great fan. I cried at the end of this movie. I feel this is a sad and cautionary tale of infidelity. It is easy to be aroused and led astray in the moment, particularly by a manipulative person who feels they have nothing to lose but much to gain. Marriage and children are very special. Married people need to take care of their special relationship. I don't think that Cillian's character Jim was unhappy or looking for a sexual relationship. Yvonne just threw herself at Cillian/Jim. Jim was weak and did not back off like Chris did when he was in a similar situation. Yvonne messed up Jim and threw him off track. He paid a high price. I was glad Jim rejected Yvonne in the end as she was manipulative. There are lots of movies about infidelity. I felt this movie was real.

It took me more than one viewing to appreciate the movie. Jim is a complex character, not so much the other ones. It's worth a watch. Great acting.
