Ireland, 1970s. Eager to leave his dark past behind, Finbar Murphy (Liam Neeson) leads a quiet life in the remote coastal town of Glencolmcille, far from the political violence that grips the rest of the country. But when a menacing crew of terrorists arrive, led by a ruthless woman named Doirean (Kerry Condon), Finbar is drawn into an increasingly vicious game of cat and mouse, forcing him to choose between exposing his secret identity or defending his friends and neighbors.

Well-written and classically constructed, In the Land of Saints and Sinners is one of the better action thrillers Liam Neeson's made in recent years.

Tara Brady Irish Times 10/14/2024
3/5
As pleasing as it is to encounter Colm Meaney, Niamh Cusack and Jack Gleeson, they form a parade of wasted ideas and characters who needed far more screen time and development. Go to Full Review Robbie Collin Daily Telegraph (UK) 04/26/2024
3/5
As such, there’s a find-and-replace quality to aspects of the writing... But such stock roles are geed up by performances that are stronger than they had to be. Go to Full Review Danny Leigh Financial Times 04/25/2024
3/5
Neeson is as sturdy as ever in a role Clint Eastwood might have played 20 years ago and a few thousand miles away. And Condon excels, giving a stock character a shudder of intensity and three dimensions. Go to Full Review Matthew Briody Film Ireland Magazine 03/12/2025
Nestled in the natural beauty of Donegal, this film blends the perfect mix of drama and action. In the Land of Saints and Sinners is masterfully crafted with a wholly entertaining premise. Go to Full Review Dennis Schwartz Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews 10/11/2024

In The Land of Saints and Sinners has some fine performances and scenery, but it can’t decide on a tone, with awkward results. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

susan g 04/12/2024 The Itish accents were very hard to understand See more Sharon 04/12/2024 Learning about the war they had over between the north and south. See more Suzanne 04/12/2024 I liked that it starred Liam Neeson. One of my favorite actors but this movie was a disappointment as it had too many F bombs, not by him but the other actors. If I didn't have my parents with me, it wouldn't have bothered me as much. Also, the Irish brogue was very thick and dialogue was very often lost on us. See more Jeff 04/10/2024 Typical Liam N. Action Thriller with possibilties of sequels. Filmed over Beautiful Irish Countryside. See more kay c 04/09/2024 slow to start, but Liam Neeson being Liam Neeson is always a thrill. See more Deborah 04/09/2024 Interesting info of that time period in Ireland however we were left with questions as to what individuals were targeted by the IRA and what they had done.
