THE GUARD, R ( 1 hr & 35 min )
Quickie Review: An unorthodox Irish police officer reluctantly teams-up with a formal FBI agent who's on the trail of some international drug traffickers.
It had some funny moments that the audience and I liked. Unfortunately for me, I don't have a "good ear" for the Irish accent, humor and slang.
Here are the things that I didn't like about this movie: What's a little boy doing riding around in a pink girl's bicycle? And that little boy seemed to always be around no matter what time of day or night! Doesn't that boy have a place to call home? A cop should know better than to have the occupants of a car that he just pulled over step outside the vehicle and flank him. Shouldn't these cops be wearing clip-on ties, instead? If you have a fresh scab on your lip, the one thing that you don't want to do is smile--it will just tear at the scab and make it bleed! In the shoot-out, the bad guy held his pistols far apart, wider than the width of his intended target--no wonder he couldn't kill the cop! What an idiot ....
