Political hijinks abound when 2 tracksuit-wearing drug dealers and a teacher in Belfast form a rap group that sings in Gaelic. The alleged story of the origin of the real-life group Kneecap, starring its actual members. We saw a super exclusive preview with the director and cast last night, opens Friday at a theater near you.

I went in there totally ignorant of it being a "real life" group and didn't know till they came out afterward. That's partly because it was so obviously fiction but a credit to their acting.

So there were a lot of references to their music I missed in the film.

I'd say this wasn't perfect but a couple of great scenes, a lot of energy, definitely entertaining.
