Brilliant! Absolutely brilliant! War of the Buttons is a swirling pattern of emotion which entrances you into its array of colours. This film is about to two rival gangs in Ireland who begin a war between each other. The film contains some references to lord of the rings in a few subtle ways. This film has many surprising and funny moments including one that will give you stomach cramps you will laugh so hard! I fell off my chair! This film also gives an insight to what it’s like to live in a town in remote parts of the countryside.
I would recommend this film to all who not mind a tiny bit of bad language (although you will probably have no idea it is bad language until 20 minutes into the film). Overall this is probably one of the best films I’ve ever watched. And I think you will enjoy it to.
