Highly reccomended on blu-ray (or even dvd) comes The guard directed by John michael Mcdonagh and starring brendan gleeson, Don cheedle, Mark strong and Liam cunningham.

An Irish Black comedy (which should be a reccomendation in itself) that stars the always excellent Gleeson as sergent gerry boyle an easy going policeman not adverse to dropping acid at acident scenes and taking a day off to hole up in a hotail with two hookers. Into town comes FBI agent wendell everett (don cheadle) on the trail of a group of international cocaine smugglers (mark strong and liam cunningham) as one might expect in the tradition of good buddy movies the pair dont get along at first but soon become friends as they get to know each other.

Despite the cliche of every traditional buddy movie, The guard is a dark and funny movie with a sharp and intelligent sense of humour. Gleeson is supurb as a small town cop whose jovial and seemingly simple nature masks an inteligent an honest copper whose one step ahead of everyone around him. The film has some excellent dialouge and a great soundtrack plus plenty of homages to westerns in its style and a really entertaining finale.

The blu-ray looks and sounds fantastic and comes with a commentary track, behhind the scenes featurette, outtakes, delted scenes and a short movie so plenty there in terms of extras.

I had a great deal of fun with this movie and highly reccomend it to anyoneone here!

The posts about Black Dynamite in the What films have you seen recently? thread reminded me how much I liked it when I rented it from Lovefilm, so I bought a copy for the princely sum of £2.99!
