Description
The town of Ballywood, Ireland has a cash flow problem. To avert foreclosure, the townspeople devise a poetry contest in hopes of collecting enough entry fees. Con-artist, Jimmy of South Central L.A., on the run from bill collectors and a jilted lover, is the lucky winner. Jimmy, who relocates to Ballywood, has always dreamed of living on an island. Meanwhile the townspeople are expecting an American of Irish descent. What follows is a hilarious fish-out-of-water comedy with romance, heart, and a great message about community and friendship.

Irish Jam is a cute story, pretty well written, and pretty well acted, and filmed in a beautiful locale.
It is the story of a con man who goes gooey, and buys his own con, or goes good, depending on your perspective (The Music Man, Curley Sue etc, etc.). A fatherless child sees the good in a hustler that no one else can sense, and then changes his life. There are some funny parts, lots of stereotypes, a far fetched romance, and a happy ending.
All in all, not a bad way to spend an hour and a half.

I caught this film on cable and after an initial shutter at the name, I found that I couldn't stop watching it. The film blind-sided me with witty dialogue, funny moments, and heart. Lighten up, watch it, and have yourself a bit of fun.

A CUTE COMEDY FOR ONE AND ALL. IT SHOWS US WHAT KINDNESS AND CARING CAN DO IF PROPERLY DONE.
HOW A ONE TIME CON ARTIST CAN CHANGE HIS WAYS, AND FIND A LIFE OF HAPPINESS FOR HIMSELF.
ONE NICE FACTOR IS THAT THERE IS NO FOUL LANGUAGE USED IN THIS MOVIE, SO ANYONE OF ANY AGE CAN SIT AND ENJOY IT.
