John Michael McDonaghs The Guard has all the reliable
hallmarks of a crime thriller police corruption, drug trafficking, blackmail,
and murder but at its heart, its a wickedly funny buddy cop movie. What makes
it even funnier is that its also in part a fish out of water story; two
policemen from different worlds, literal and figurative, must join forces if
theyre to successfully take on a gang of international drug smugglers. One is
an eccentric police officer from a small village in Ireland. This would be
Sergeant Gerry Boyle (Brendan Gleeson). He doesnt play by the rules, if I may
be allowed a descriptive cliché. He has a questionable sense of humor, and his
personality can only be described as confrontational. You will often see him at
the pub, either drinking or playing a violent shoot-em-up arcade game. He has a
taste for young prostitutes, two of whom are more than happy to do business with
him.
