However, Martin McDonagh pulls off this potent mix of styles and blends them to create the very fine "In Bruges", which he has not only directed but also written.
Gleeson's character Ken enjoys soaking in the culture and antiquity of Bruges, which apparently is "the most well-preserved medieval city in Belgium".
