The owner of the James Joyce Irish Bar is about to lose the two most important things to him in life - his wife and his bar. He has only a few hours to figure out how to keep both while dealing the wide assortment of characters always present at his bar.

Maybe some people just aren't meant to fall in love. For years, it seemed as though Mike was living the ideal life. He could get any woman he wanted, and he did, sometimes even all at once. He was a legend in his own time, but then, it happened - Mike finally met Sandra, the woman of his dreams, and fell in head over heels, white picket fence, settle down and get married love. But there was one tiny problem standing between him and a lifetime of love and happiness - his enormous list of past female conquests that started coming back to haunt him.

When Sandra gets wind of his shady past, things start to disintegrate between them. Certain Mike has cheated on her, she files for divorce, vowing to take away the only thing Mike loves almost as much as her - his pub. With only a few hours to go before he loses everything, Mike must handle the chaos at the bar while trying to figure out how to prevent his financial demise.

I used to bartend in my younger days, so this film was somewhat easy to relate to. Though I have never owned a bar or been on the brink of a divorce. Or eaten a ton of chicken wings and canned beans. Anyway, the characters in this film are goofy, and it is pretty predictable what will happen towards the end. I have to admit the drunk goggle guys/girls was my favorite part. Overall, A Joyce Story could be enjoyable for a couple of old bar friends to watch over a beer or two. Or three or four depending on if you like the film! I needed a six pack, personally.
