Olivia Cooke is on good form in this rather far-fetched Irish comedy caper that sees her easily manipulate then hook up with the naive pairing of Ben Hardy and Daryl McCormack and armed with an huge stash of MDMA and their own body in the boot, they try to stay one step ahead of some pursuing drug dealers who happen to be men of the cloth. The dialogue is quite witty, the three lead performers work well together and the imagery of a nun with a pump-action shotgun certainly raises a smile, but the story is really pretty thin and the last fifteen minutes way too predictable. It’s also padded out a bit too much by lovely aerial shots of their road trip and/or pretty extended use of the – admittedly, quite good, catchy soundtrack. Much is made of the appearances by Colm Meaney and Alec Baldwin, but my vote goes to Ned Dennehy as “Seamus” – the assassin – who always manages to inject a little something else into his performances, brief as they usually are. I did enjoy this, it’s an engaging piece of escapist cinema that has high production standards, plenty of spirit and Ben Hardy occasionally well out of his comfort zone!.
There are lots of laughs to be had, and though there’s not much new, the chemistry between the characters is wonderful, playing well against the violent situations they find themselves in. I always have time for these genre films, and in that way, this did not disappoint. If you’re in the mood for a laugh and can’t quite bring yourself to watch ‘In Bruges’ or ‘Snatch’ for the hundredth time, then ‘Pixie’ might just be the medicine you crave. Crass, funny and violent, what are movies for if not to escape reality and enjoy yourself.

Pixie
Modern day Ireland. Pixie (Olivia Cooke) is out to avenge the death of her mother and start a new life – but when a botched drug heist threatens the truce between her gangster father (Colm Meaney) and church leader Father Hector (Alec Baldwin) she finds herself on the run with two strangers (Ben Hardy, Daryl McCormack) who are as eager to start a new life as she is.Pixie Hardy (Olivia Cooke) is a smart, funny and manipulating tease. Exactly the kind of woman your mum would warn you away from (but also the kind she’s secretly rooting for). Pixie is joined by hapless companions Frank (Ben Hardy) and Harland (Daryl McCormack) when the aftermath of a botched drug heist, involving Catholic priests, sees them thrust together introducing Alec Baldwin’s shady Father Hector.
With the first half hour spent establishing the trio’s characters (and teenage jokes) the film is in no rush to get going. More time is spent introducing the lead characters and setting up the uncomplicated plot (how to get rid of an absurd amount of drugs) rather than cutting to the chase.
Almost a hybrid of Snatch, Hot Fuzz and On the Road, this is a fun take on the classic road-trip film. The sense of adventure and threat of the story is balanced with an undercurrent of dark humour.
Whether panning across the countryside, rural areas of Sligo or the Irish coastline, the cinematography here is stunning. Great care has been taken to capture the feeling of isolation – the sights of Ireland’s West Coast are truly beautiful.
With a cast of supporting characters and short cameos (Colm Meaney, Dylan Moran) this is a fun ride – But It’s definitely Pixie’s show and Olivia Cooke’s mesmerising performance without a doubt carries this.
if you like Guy Ritchie films you’ll like this
Its not a classic but there are very few films out there at all at the moment, and this passed a very pleasant evening for me and my son. Olivia Cooke steals the film as Pixie and the rest of the cast provide good support. Alec Baldwin and Colm Meaney could have been used more. There are a few twists and the scenery is lovely. I think if you like Guy Ritchie style films you’ll enjoy this.
