CRITICS OF "The Guard"

Tribune News Service

A laugh-out-loud comedy as hard as "The French Connection," a modern spaghetti Western on the windswept wastes of Ireland."

January 09, 2013

Resource

Toronto Star

Brendan Gleeson is a blooming marvel.

August 26, 2011

rec.arts.movies.reviews

To paraphrase Nigel Terry in "The Lion in Winter," "The Guard" is a stinker and it stinks.

September 04, 2015

Resource

Critic's Notebook

Following a surprisingly conventional climax, "The Guard" concludes in an open-ended fashion.

October 07, 2015

Resource

LarsenOnFilm

Gleeson and writer-director John Michael McDonagh are in lock step in characterizing the decidedly unorthodox Gerry Boyle.

August 05, 2014

Resource

Philadelphia Weekly

An ode to shabby nobility much stranger and sadder than expected.

May 03, 2015

Screenwize

This 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.

April 03, 2012

Resource

St. Louis Post-Dispatch

"The Guard" is violent, profane and funny.

August 19, 2011

Resource

Globe and Mail

Although The Guard is primarily a language romp, it's also a terrific showcase for veteran pug-faced character actor Brendan Gleeson.

August 26, 2011

Resource

Houston Chronicle

Crisp, 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.

August 19, 2011

Detroit News

There are few things finer in cinema than Brendan Gleeson's fat, happy face.
