Over the summer of 1976, thirty-six bombs detonate in the heart of Cleveland while a turf war raged between Irish mobster Danny Greene and the Italian mafia. Based on a true story, kill the Irishman chronicles Greene's heroic rise from a tough Cleveland neighborhood to become an enforcer in the local mob.

This film was surprisingly enjoyable. There really wasn't much that was breaking new ground. It was just fun and interesting. The acting was good even when the script was a little iffy. To be honest I thought it was better than The Departed.
