A modest law-abiding citizen, Harry Brown (Michael Caine) is a retired Marine and a widower who lives alone on a depressed housing estate. His only company is his best friend Leonard (David Bradley). When Leonard is murdered by a gang of thugs, Harry feels compelled to act and is forced to dispense his own brand of justice. As he bids to clean up the run-down estate where he lives, his actions bring him into conflict with the police, led by investigating officer DCI Frampton (Emily Mortimer) and Charlie Creed-Miles.
This looks like Gran Torino in England. Except the social commentary and car is replaced by Chavs?
Favorite This!
Charlie Bronson watch out, Michael Caine is about to lay down some righteous ass whoopings!
*Crosses fingers for Cockneyed accent*
A friend told me this was a very good movie.
Your friend was correct. This is different from Torino though; Clint Eastwood made progress with his racism and started fighting bad guys, Michael Caine’s friend dies as a result of a chav prank, and so Michael Caine kills fucking everyone.
And yes, he has a cockney accent. It’s epic.
Definitely want to see this.
HOLY S***! That’s Filch from the Harry Potter movies.
I will watch this. Old ex military guys killing criminals is always entertaining.
Nice (watched it today)
