Harry Brown (2009)

 Genre: Thriller / Action
Directed by: Daniel Barber
Starring: Michael Caine, Emily Mortimer, Jack O’Connell
Running time: 103 minutes

 


Harry Brown is a retired veteran of the Royal Marines who fought in Northern Ireland. A recent widower, the loss of his best friend, who gets brutally murdered by a gang of young adults who sell drugs in the Estate where he lives, sends him on a rampage of vigilantism.

While this is not the best vigilante film I have seen, it is not without merit. It is a little drab, but Michael Caine’s presence and performance brings it back up a bit. In the end, it is still an entertaining piece of cinema.
