The Guard

Indie, Dark Comedy
4 stars
Good Irish movie about a police investigation of an international drug ring. Brendon Gleeson (In Bruges, another good movie and Harry Potter) stars as a small town Irish cop in Connemara investigating a local murder when he learns he must work with American FBI agent Don Cheadle (Traitor, Hotel Rwanda, Crash). Lots of profanity and racist remarks - Gleeson puts it best by saying “I’m Irish. Being racist is part of my culture!”. Very good movie.
