Rosie

Just loved the acting, and the story is moving smoothly. Sadly no happy ending in this movie. Overall its a must watch, as its showing one of the most inconvenient problems the world is facing.

I'm not gonna say much just watch the movie and feel it Reduced 2 rating because i feel like movie is a little bit short and they could have gone for some ending either bad ending or good ending both fit on this movie And yeah STAY AWAY from negative and illogical reviews like phone bill must be massive, Car phone rain and saying movie is slow. They are none other than bunch of Emotion-Less person. A slow movie always give you feel and emotions of the circumstances but some people can't understand that

I enjoyed this film. The story was sad and could happen to any one of us anywhere, not just in Ireland. I was shocked by some of the comments here. Obviously some reviewers had not watched the film, had no compassion or are just dense. One reviewer has moaned that Rosie is on her phone all the time? She's trying to find emergency housing for her family! Another reviewer has said people should not have kids unless they have somewhere for them to live. The children in the movie were 13 down to say 4 years old. Also Rosie and J Paul lived in the last house for 7 years until the greedy landlord threw them out prior to selling. Please watch the movie and listen also prior to reviewing. That's common sense.

Here's the thing: in a time of genuine crises, it is not the appropriate time to stand up for a long-past principle involving a dead father who it's hinted used to abuse you. This is not the time to try and deal with the children's grandmother's issues of deep, dark denial about it. Put the kids with grannie, who no longer has an abuser in the house, go find a proper home like good parents do, who have a working father, and then later, when all is well, go get your kids and never go back to granny's house if need be. This is the type of stupidity that families love to indulge in, high drama and misery and mixed pain and suffering. Parents can deal with their own issues another day. Immediate need is just that. This was a stupid, annoying, long winded watch which I expected to actually be about real homeless people who would never throw so much as ONE chip away, let alone have a 'light relief' food fight. Not a real rendition of suffering. Just one of pride and over breeding. Usually Irish movies are excellent. This was not.

Some people have complained about the slowness of this movie, but that is part of it. The director let's you live with Rosie the small details allowing you to get the raw emotions that are meant to be felt throughout the film. A truly brilliant movie with excellent acting by Sarah Greene.

Oh, my god, what a wonderful, depressing movie, that really hurt every inch of my body to watch. it is neo social realism from ireland this time at top level. its about a family of 6, having been evicted from their rented home, and we follow them for a few days in their frantic search to get a roof over their heads. you shouldnt believe that this happens in these days in this part of our modern world.but after curious searching, i have come to know that in ireland only there are about 10000- 25000 people that are categorized as family that are somehow homeless or without a fixed adress. this number excludes single people,addicts,alcoholics,hobo's and whatever, its pure families, mum, dad, and children without the warmth and safety of home dear home..... there are factors in the story, such as shame,angst to seek help from velfare offices in case the children being taken away, lots of pride, and most of all the need to feel like a normal average succesfull human being. they could have used family for help, but bad realations are here a hinder for a solution like that....nevertheless, its a major problem, and they must never be forgotten. i am not rich and have striven financially when kids were small, but weve been careful, and sober on what weve spent money on, and i learnt to hammer an 3 inch nail in a plank of wood when i was 23, because i had to. the big shame for ireland is the vast amount of ghost residencies ,empty houses and apartment that are not used . they can expropriate milions of hectars for road development,making car parks,or building paths for bikes and pedestrians, why not expropriate houses and apartments as well.??extreme,but i ask??? the saying'' living in a box'' has got a new explonaion for me, namely living in a aluminum box with 4 round rubber wheels under.... acting....extremely well done both the adults and all the children. i just wanda what deadly said stories were told to make them children look so supersad and depressed.the dialouges and symmetry and dynamics of the acting a trully brilliant, i can only wish that this should be the candiate from the irish film board for the next academy awards 2020. the grumpy old man are nearly exploding of mixed emotion after watching such a darn well made movie, and should have shared so much more, but the language barriere are to big and mjy fingertips are qiute numb at the moment, so have a look at this flick yourself,and please forget your besserwisser part of yourself and place yourself under the excact same emotional way the characters does.. its tough and it is an eyeopener en masse'..highly reccomended.

The movie highlights important problem in Irish society - lack of personal responsibilities for own action. I am single and would never decide to make kids unless I secured place to live for them. And for three kids that Rosie has permanent is not a suitable place. it should be a house where teenage kid has its own room. Otherwise you hurt your children. Homelessness is a result of bad own decisions and bad planning of your own life.
