Rating: 4/5 --
A superbly crafted comedy that gives a hilarious angle on Irish culture, in particular its taste for inappropriate humour.

CineVue
At its best, THE GUARD has a wit and perceptiveness that recalls the comedies of Bill Forsyth...
Sight and Sound
Rating: 3.5/5 --
The Guard offers an offbeat take on a genre without skimping on the violence or gunplay.
