    Came across this today, looks very good.

    Written and directed by John Michael McDonagh, 'The Guard' is set in the west of Ireland where Sergeant Gerry Boyle ( Brendan Gleeson) finds his routine disrupted by the arrival of Wendell Everett (Cheadle), an FBI agent on the trail of cocaine smugglers.

    Should that not be "The Gard"?

    Not if you're speaking English.

    It was shown at Sundance a while back and it received pretty good reviews.

    They should rename the film "Suspended Sentence".

    Looks funny enough,I'll watch anything with Gleeson in it after seeing In Bruges,think bits of The Guard were filmed around Wicklow.
