The General, The Guard, Calvery, The Van, Black 47, The Field, Michael Collins, Ryan's Daughter and some other Irish movies should have got a honorable mention in this clip IMO.
I'm mexican, and I like irish movies, this list is good, also In the Name of the Father and Sings Street are some of My favorites
Name of the Father is fantastic. Wind that Shakes is as well. While not an “Irish movie” strictly speaking, I strongly suggest you watch Boondock Saints, and it’s sequel All Saints Day. Many ppl claim the sequel is shite, but I like it.
😂I’m Mexican Too I Just Miss Irish Girl 😕😂🤣
Considering your roots I would recommend One Man's Hero starring Tom Berenger if you haven't seen it. It's the true story of an Irish immigrant, John Riley, and his followers in the US at the time of the war with Mexico. It's not a true "Irish" film but it is very much about the Irish people and their spirit. What kind of a man is willing to fight and die for another man's country based on his own principles? An Irishman, that's who. Four of my grandchildren are half Irish but I love them anyway.
I will add on 2 Irish movies you should see, one directed by John Carney, who did Once. It’s called Flora and Son (2023)
And another great movie called An Cailín Ciúin /The Quiet Girl (2022)
Hi could someone please help me here an Irish movie with true life event this gentleman was it it mother forced to live in slums husband would leave supposed to be away working but he sent no money I remember the pigs head the mum managed to get for a Christmas dinner her son became a postman eventually and caught the consumption as it was called please can anyone tell me the name off this film its for an elderly lady who can't remember the name be greatful for any help ❤
How the heck The Commitments did not make the list???
One of the oldie but goodies my ma turned me onto was “The Quiet Man” starring John Wayne. Brilliant and lighthearted.
The Magdalene Sisters, Waking Ned Devine, Breakfast on Pluto, The Boxer, In America is a far better immigrant story than Brooklyn. There's no shortage of choices.
Into the West, Secret of Roan Inish, Ondine,Darby O’Gill, In America, Belfast, and all the Tomm Moore movies are some of my favorites
the Secret of Kells, The War of the Buttons, The Secret of Roan Inish,
The Secret of Roan Inish.......ONE OF THE BEST...NEVER TIRE OF WATCHING IT. TOTALLY BRILLIANT.
amen!
One of my favorites is the animation film "Secret of Kells" I also like "Song of the Sea" and "Riverdance" the animated adventure.
The wind that shakes the barely, Angela’s ashes, the gaurd, between the canals, the van, the snapper, war of the buttons, into the west, the butcher boy
War of the Buttons was a favourite of ours growing up
The General, the Field as In the name of the Father's are masterpieces
We always use to watch Irish movies and we have so many DVDs home in the old 8-track tapes there's nothing like them they're so realistic they bring back memories sit down and watch them and have a nice drink or a nice Irish coffee with two shots of Irish whiskey in it life is worth living
🍀🇨🇮💯🍀👍
One of my favorites is The Nephew. Maybe not an iSight film company, and quite a rough piece but a wonderful story..pierce bro’s an...the funeral song in Gaelic sung by the Nephew had me crying. Great movie!
Angela's Ashes, Micheal Collins, In the Name of the Father, and now the Banshees of Insherin
"In Bruges" is awesome
“Angela’s Ashes” is my favourite Irish movie.
Great movie
Yes I really expected to see it on the list.
Depressing! And if he’s so broke, why does he spend all his money on booze?
Why do you potato jockeys charge 6 euros for a pint?
Oh come on, no commitments?
Dancing at Lughnasa was another great show
My faves would be :
H3
Some Mother's Son
Cal
Bloody Sunday
In America (I love Paddy Considine)
The Wind That Shakes The Barley (I played it in a video store where I was working and during a busy Saturday every customer glued their eyes to the tv when they shot the Brits in the pub).
Angela's ashes, between the canals, into the west
ian mcdonagh I was shocked into the west was not on the list
@@thebigloc1 me too it's a classic
Why r u talken to the horse?
Why not?
Odd Man Out, hands down. Michael Collins, The Field. All heart wrenching for certain and wonderfully acted.
Into the west!! Gabriel byrne
“Why ya talken to the horse?”
“Why not?”
thankyou for recommendations
Oh my gosh, did you forget “Angela’s Ashes” question
What about "The Committments"??
Yes that had a great soundtrack.
Did you ever see Elvis doing drugs
These amazing films should be dubbed in the Irish language.
Yeps The Wind That Shakes The Barley is one special film. Glad it's on the top10, deserves a better rank than no.10 though. Thanks to Cillian I was able to discover and loooove Irish films! Disco Pigs and Dating Amber will forever own a space in my heart.
Well hold on The wind that dhakes the barley is a masterpiece and is a great example of brotgerhood and our past and Barry Lyndon a forgotten stanley Kubrick classic is brilliant as well and also the commitments is another classic
Good call.... "Barry Lyndon", Ryan O'Neil's best performance on screen IMO, just ahead of "Love Story".
I have a very different list though I have ever only met a handful of Irish people in South Africa.
#1 The commitments.
#2 Michael Collins.
#3 In the Name of the Father
#4 The Crying Game
The wind that shakes the barley is one of my favorite movies it's so powerful
I'm a big fan of Irish films. The stark reality of them and the gritty nature and the struggle against persecution. Few good films where missed out . Black47. Micheal Collins. Magdelane sister's what happened there then I'm intrigued
"The Outcasts" from 1982, a mystic Film from Robert Wynne--Simmons, is the best irish film!
Super Duper Coolies 😎 Thank-you for sharing.
Great films but, you just can’t beat The Field. Fantastic movie.
This is all made maybe by Irish for Irish people. But outside Ireland I guess things are rather different. I have asked the past few weeks at least 25 people in Holland what their Irish favourite film is and also 5 in Belgium and abt another 5 in Germany plus a few in various Scandinavian countries. Believe it or not, but RYANS DAUGHTER was in 90-95% of these abt 40 filmlovers THE nr one ! Hardly ever the Irish Landscape was só impressively filmed. In fact it was the reason I went to Ireland the first time and
of many of those I asked, it was the same. It also seems that the film becomes more valued since the time passes on. Or is the film not mentioned because film director David Lean was British , like actress Sarah Miles and actor Robert Mitchum was American?(his father was half Irish though) Anyway, the film was 100% made in Ireland though and I remember visiting the location opposite the Blasket Islands (schoolhouse). Ireland's tourism must have benefitted from Ryan's Daughter and the film created many Ireland-lovers all over the world.
Ryan's Daughter definitely belongs on the list. I've also been to the places where it was filmed and the scenery is amazing. The Field, which I just re-watched a few days ago was also missed.
Thanks from New York for the comments, everyone! Even more great Irish films to watch.somewhen after our latest civil war.😔😣😞
can't believe the general isn't on it still a good list
the vicious circle Is about the general good movie
the commitments
why can there be more delightful Irish movies instead of just fighting and down and out times. Just cheerful fullof music and dance and foods andclean romance, clean comedy, and poetry. Instead, shows really do become a self fulfilling prophecy ofpeople
There is a sweet little movie the equal of any of these for charm “the boys and girl from the county Clare” and the best and most important Irish film of all time was one of John fords first talkies “the informer” it’s a classic and a lesson in film making.
What is number 8 called? You guys showed the name for all in the list but not number 8. Is it Wounds? Waltz? I'm sorry I couldn't catch up to the accent but i like and love watching Irish films. Do let me know
What about the best Irish movie and one of the best movies of all time "In the name of the father".??? There's a lot of great Irish movies that were left out like.. The field, Waking Ned, Michael Collins, Some Mother's Son, The butcher boy.. etc.
Some mothers son
War of the buttons
@coinínbán The Snapper features at number 7.
Terrible top ten
The butcher boy is PHENOMENAL. I forgot all about it, now that you've mentioned it...
Calvary, Boondock saints (perhaps not Irish but still), the Field, In the name of the father - awesome films!
Monster was so drawn out OMG first hour i was wondering if it was a silent film or irish version of castaway
As an American/Italian one of my all time favorite movies, the classic 1952 film “The Quiet Man” with John Wayne & Maureen O’Hara.
The first American feature to be filmed in the beautiful Ireland countryside. Many scenes for the film were actually shot in and around the village of Cong, County Mayo, on the grounds of Cong's Ashford Castle.
A funny & romantic story.
Winner of two Oscars & Best Director.

I loved all the films mentioned above but many are not listed. One I am looking for "The Lovers of the Lake' Perhaps a TV-Film. I was invited to see the casting in Donegal Ireland, absolutely per chance. It was wonderful. I could tell more but I am writing a story story about it. If anyone finds this film please put it on UA-cam. I know years later it was shown on Dutch TV by the VPRO.
From Iraq 🇮🇶 big fan for the Beautiful Irish accent ❤
God , I love the accent !!
Obviously there are many superb films that didn't make the list...ten isn't enough to do Irish cinematography justice. For what it's worth I would throw in "A Love Divided", "When Brendan Met Trudy" and the superb horror film "The Hallow"
Bollix. The Field? Surely the field should be top 3. Blasphemy. Rotten Tomatoes 🍅 alright!
How is The Field not on this list
2 and 3 are you taking the piss. The Field and the Commitments are fantastic.
I will add on 2 Irish movies you should see to this list
One directed by John Carney, who did Once. It’s called Flora and Son (2023)
And another great movie called An Cailín Ciúin /The Quiet Girl (2022)
I’m surprised the Magdalene sisters and Angela’s ashes isn’t on the list.
Some other great films some I haven’t even seen mentioned in the comments are
Mickeybo and me
Fifty dead men walking
You me and Marley
Accelerator
The boxer
The devils own
And my dads favourite Cal
In the name of the father
What about Veronica Gervin
I'm looking for a movie, the story of it was on ireland not sure if its a Irish movie.. However it is more of a crime, thriller movie.. The movie is about a guy that was wanted by cops, he lived in an abandon looking house with a secret hideaway spot in the board floor, movie may be old.. I think he died in the last part.. But he was a bad guy or gangster.... I really dont remember a lot but it was a crime movie
It was Broccoli's wife that suggested casting Sean Connery, not Broccoli.
Sunday Bloody Sunday #1 For me
If we are talking about the same movie, the title is "Bloody Sunday". Paul Greengrass directed it. Very similar in style as his later film, "United 93". Both are simply amazing.
You missed out the Field, with Richard Harris. One of the best movies ever.
Also The Commitments
No mention of Circle of Friends or Angela's Ashes?
Feck Rotten Tomato's
Adam and Paul
Inside am dancing was a great film set in dublin
Love her accent!
Watch Darby O’Gill And The Little People It’s Great
Jessica Gaming333 saw it around Christmas and loved it
I remember watching Darby O'Gill and the little people as a child and being frightened to death of the Banchee. 😂😂😂
Kinda disappointed The Field or The Guard aren’t on this list
The Young Offenders is hilarious. One of my favorite movies.
The Commitments anyone?
Intermission is my fav 😂
Brooklyn is a great movie ❤❤❤
"according to Rotten Tomatoes". God help us.
#8
‘Once’
Darby O'Gill? You must be joking.
Into the West, The War of the Buttons..
My Irish Cousins, and friends, hated Waking Ned Devine. (Created by the English it showed the Irish rustic and greedy.)
Any review of Irish films, that doesn't include the wonderful "Da", can't be taken seriously.
Can someone recommend comedy movies from Ireland I would love to watch. Thanks😅
"The Guard" Starring Don Cheadle and the great Brendan Gleason. (You should disregard the trailer if you've seen it - Seen out of context, the briefing room scene makes Gleason's character look like a racist doofus along the lines of Sherrif Buford T. Justice, played by his _almost_ namesake Jackie, in Smokey & The Bandit, when he's actually a far deeper and more complex character than the trailer inexplicably makes him appear.) V. funny, smart, underrated movie.
A slight stretch here - not strictly speaking 'Irish', but with Irish actors playing Irish characters - Brendan Gleason again stars in 'In Brüges', along with Colin Farrell, this time on the opposite side of the Law, as a couple of sympathetic hitmen in _deep_ need of psychoanalysis sent to Belgium to await instructions on a mysterious contract.
Of course people's tastes when it comes to movies - and most especially comedies - are highly individual and subjective.
Neither of these are your usual 'Cops'n'Robbers' Dirty Harry - or even 'Lethal Weapon/'Beverly Hills Cop' - type fare, but neither are they the standard 'Oirish' Toora - Loora fodder, be that a good thing or a bad thing, but I heartily recommend you give them a go - Enjoy!
1:43 it's set in Dublin city she ain't a small town girl
Watching this just to hear some nice Irish accent
Reefer And The Model, Eat The Peach, The Courier, Angel.
The Quiet Man
And The Commitments

Darby gill and the little people, The Qui9 Man, leap year, Boonedock St. , Shannondu,
You got 3 of my favotites😊
What about Angela's Ashes.
Good Pick, I forgot that one. Usually, movies made from a bestselling book are good. I'm still laughing about DArby O'gill . Are they kidding?
Sure that fillem was only slagging off limerick
@@josephshields2922 Darby O'gill is still magic to CHILDREN everywhere.
The field????!!!!!!!
John Donohue one of the best movies of all time and it’s not on this list
walsh yep true
The young offenders should be no.1
I kept looking for and didn't find a movie about IRA with an IRA woman arrested when about to bomb a subway and a man who befriends her.
No Shadow Dancer? Shocking!!
Not sure I'll get a response, but I have been looking for a movie that Richard Roeper recommended years ago. It was actully 3 films that were released centered around this one corrupt police unit as they investigate the death of a young girl. Lots of cover-ups and stuff. Maybe it was made for t.v. ?
What about Mickybo & me
Was technically made in northern Ireland wasn't it
Ondine!!
War of the Buttons!
No the commitments ?
Ahhhhh in the name of the father????????
I like Irish~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I
I love Irish too❤️
