(2011) The Guard.

COMEDY/ DRAMA/ THRILLER.

At the beginning of the film, a guard allows a speeder to drive by who eventually kills everyone on bord including himself and takes it asa grain of salt. He is an obnoxious sergent, and his name is Boyle (Brendan Gleeson) who is ironically the less corrupt despite being radical. The movie then brings an FBI agent doing an investigation on some dangerous drug and weapon trafficking and his name is Wendell Everitt and he is being played by Don Cheadle. while the film restricts Don Cheadle as a FBI agent to be incompetent, he is only their as a backdrop to Brendan Gleesons unfunny comedic performance.

2 out of 4 stars.
