This film has been compared to The Full Monty, but it lacks the vein of desperation that added depth to that film. Instead, Waking Ned Devine is closer in tone to classic British comedies like Whisky Galore!, with its cast of eccentrics gleefully conspiring to outwit the authorities. Those with a low tolerance for twinkly eyed Irish charm might be tempted to steer clear, although the movie is saved, for the most part, by its central performances. Bannen is superb as an old man who is clearly hungry for any excitement he can drum up and David Kelly is remarkable as his scrawny sidekick. Kelly has had a long career as a character actor in film and television, but here he has a chance to really let loose. His naked motorcycle ride is a marvelous set piece and in all of his other scenes his twitchy, perfectly timed performance quite simply steals the movie. --Simon Leake

Customer Reviews of Waking Ned Devine
Masterful If you ever wanted to visit a small one street village in Ireland and get a peek into the characters that live there, this is the movie for you. If you have ever lived in Ireland and miss home, than this is the movie for you!!!!
refreshung, very funny
We seldom, if ever, go to the movies any more. Not willing to pay so much for so much garbage. We are older and Irish so we appreciate the personalities and the humor of this movie. Also just loved the scenery. Having been to Ireland many years ago, it brought back memories of the beautiful countryside, the simplicity of life there etc. Our son had seen the movie and recommended it.
A favorite
This is one of my favorite films of all time. I saw it three times at the theatre and once on a plane before I bought it. Great music, characters, and story. This film is great for all ages.
