YMMV / Dublin Crust

• Awesome Music: "All That's Gold" and "Miriam", the two songs written for the film, are pretty darn great.
• He Really Can Act: Eddie Nil had no acting experience before, and was cast to essentially play himself. According to Word of God, he expected to be horrified at his performance, but ended up being praised for his naturalistic work, he himself surprised at how good it turned out.
• Heartwarming Moments:
  • Eddie hates Bonehead's guts at the start of the film, and is only grudgingly persuaded to meet up with him by Tracy and Gerry. He even admits that he was ready to punch him, but all that went away on seeing him, and they're just two friends happy to be reunited.
  • The climactic gig sells out and everyone loves it, as Crust perform to perfection.
• Iron Woobie: Bonehead essentially lost ten years of his life for a stupid mistake and got No Sympathy from anyone else for it. His mother died while he was in prison, and he couldn't even go to the funeral. When he gets out, he has to sleep under a bridge because the council seized the house that was left to him, and he's obviously suffering from some kind of illness. Despite this, he only cries once in the film, and is pretty un-angsty for the most part.
• Love to Hate: Jeremy is such an obnoxious prat that he ends up being hysterical, all thanks to William Morgan's performance.
• One-Scene Wonder:
  • Rosemary Henderson, Sister Assumpta herself, has just one scene as a woman thoroughly unintimidated by Bonehead's robbery attempt, but she's also a Small Role, Big Impact as the one responsible for getting him locked up.
  • Mike Timms has two scenes as the wonderfully pompous Judge Shaw, first in a flashback to Bonehead's sentencing and then coincidentally to Terrence's as well.
  • Infamous character actor Aidan O'Sullivan as a priest reading a memorable eulogy for the end scene.
• Tear Jerker: Bonehead going to his mother's grave and the reveal that he couldn't even go to the funeral because of his sentence. It's the only time he tears up in the film.
