Harry Brown = Awesome

Post by Grandpa's Spells »

Go see this. Do not see any previews, do not look up reviews to see what it's about. Avoid looking at the movie poster, if possible. Go in as uninformed as you possibly can.
One of the downsides of the Internet is that it allows like-minded people to form communities, and sometimes those communities are stupid.

Is this a real movie or the gay porn?

This was a really good movie.

I have to say that the junky with the Walther stole the whole movie IMO. That creepy little fucker is going to wind up with an oscar someday. He gave an amazing performance in a throw-away bit part.

The villains in this movie were shockingly awesome. Tweaky dude especially.

This had the GeezerRage ending that Eastwood couldn't manage in Gran Torino.

The female cop was hopeless. But the bad guys were good, especially the Junky.

My wife and I liked it; we watched Rocknrolla on Saturday and it wasn't nearly as good. British people are fucking depressing though, I'll say that much right now.
