L.A. film critic Kenneth Turan calls it “…a great gust of very funny fresh air.”
Starring Brendan Gleeson and Don Cheadle, this film will be shown Oct. 27-31, with shows weekdays and Saturday at 7:30 p.m. (no Saturday matinee) and Sunday at 2:30 and 7:30 p.m. “The Guard” is rated R for language, some violence, drug material and sexual content, and runs for 100 minutes.
An unorthodox Irish policeman (Gleeson) with a confrontational personality is teamed up with an uptight FBI agent (Cheadle) to investigate an international drug-smuggling ring. Sgt. Gerry Boyle is a small-town Irish cop with a subversive sense of humor, a dying mother, a fondness for prostitutes and absolutely no interest whatsoever in the international cocaine-smuggling ring that has brought straight-laced FBI agent Wendell Everett to his door.
