Critic Reviews of "The Guard"
Globe and MailAugust 26, 2011Although The Guard is primarily a language romp, it's also a terrific showcase for veteran pug-faced character actor Brendan Gleeson.
Toronto StarAugust 26, 2011Brendan Gleeson is a blooming marvel.
Houston ChronicleAugust 19, 2011Crisp, acid-tongued and sharply acted, it's the sort of exercise in tangy Celtic cynicism that's become one of the Emerald Isle's most reliable imports.
Detroit NewsAugust 19, 2011There are few things finer in cinema than Brendan Gleeson's fat, happy face.
Critic's NotebookOctober 07, 2015Following a surprisingly conventional climax, "The Guard" concludes in an open-ended fashion.
rec.arts.movies.reviewsSeptember 04, 2015To paraphrase Nigel Terry in "The Lion in Winter," "The Guard" is a stinker and it stinks.
Philadelphia WeeklyMay 03, 2015An ode to shabby nobility much stranger and sadder than expected.
LarsenOnFilmAugust 05, 2014Gleeson and writer-director John Michael McDonagh are in lock step in characterizing the decidedly unorthodox Gerry Boyle.
Tribune News ServiceJanuary 09, 2013A laugh-out-loud comedy as hard as "The French Connection," a modern spaghetti Western on the windswept wastes of Ireland."
ScreenwizeApril 03, 2012This film belongs to Gleeson - he seems to have effortlessly conjured up a complex and charismatic mix of world-weariness and caring, all wrapped up in that enigmatic Irish charm.
