i really liked this movie. it is a dark comedy so it is not for everyone, but it is worth just for brendon gleason's performance.

User review rating: 5 February 16, 2012

best movie i've seen in a long time, anyone who says otherwise is the reason modern films are so god awful,the simple minded unfortunately also happen to be the majority.

Brash, unfussy and extreme odd film about a crude, unfussy Irish country cop who gets mixed up in a drugs investigation and has to work with a very erudite FBI agent. Brendan Gleeson and Don Cheadle make one of the best odd couple/cop/buddy pairs in film history. The film is quietly eccentric, proudly profane and thoroughly entertaining.

Did not like it at first, but it just kept getting better.

I took a really hard to please guy friend to see this movie. We both really enjoyed it. Be warned it is profane. It is also amusing and unexpectedly warm. If you are looking for something different with some substance, go see The Guard.

A dead-tone comedy that is dead on.

User review rating: 2 November 24, 2011

very boring movie, I didn't like it. 2 out of 5 is the most I'd give it.

User review rating: 4 November 23, 2011

A great performance by Don Cheadle yet again in this movie.

A dark comedy with an edge.

User review rating: 5 November 21, 2011

This is one of the best films of the year. Such crazy dark comedy here and with some pretty epic scenes in the end. Very memorable film and sure to get an oscar nom for it's screenplay, I would assume.

An Irish friend visiting TO wanted to see The Guard and I politely went not expecting much. My mistake - darkly funny scenes mixed with poignant moments - I often couldn't resist laughing out loud and got a little choked up at the end - not to be missed!

User review rating: 5 November 20, 2011

i laughed, i cried, i saved 5 bucks!

User review rating: 4 November 19, 2011

I liked the dry, dark Irish humor.

User review rating: 3 November 19, 2011

not my kind of movie

User review rating: 4 November 18, 2011

it took about 10 minutes into the film to get used to the irish dialect and speech patterns! but then i found THE GUARD to be very enjoyable! the ending was a downer however...

Amazing ... a real surprise!

User review rating: 4 November 17, 2011

This movie was entertaining with its comedy and "suspenseful" drama! It was great seeing Don Cheadle in this role!

I loved this movie, it was awesome. It was funny. The Brits really know how to make flicks. The guard was so off beat funny, what a personality. Stupid and smart at the same time. Really good, see it and be entertained, very entertained.
