- Synopsis
- Set in the 1970’s, Breakfast on Pluto follows the exploits of Patrick Braden (Cillian Murphy), an endearing, but deceptively tough young man. Abandoned as a baby in his small Irish hometown and aware from a very early age that he is different, Patrick survives this harsh environment with the aid of his wit and charm, plus a sweet refusal to let anyone and anything change who he is. Jordan weaves a wonderfully surreal and magical tale to bring us this funny, moving and poignant rites of passage account of a young man enduring the trials and tribulations he faces with a smile and unwavering faith in the inherent goodness in us all.

- Critics' reviews
-
-
"Despite the movie's bouncy ebullience (courtesy of a terrific period soundtrack) and dashes of fantasy, the film quickly becomes an endurance test."
-
"Murphy's tour de force as the eternally optimistic Patrick surely deserves an Oscar nomination (...) One of very few movies this year truly worth remembering"
-
"The movie's drastic shifts in tone sabotage any attempt at sustained emotional engagement."
