Harry Brown (2009)
Harry Brown is a movie I wanted to see when it came out, but never got around to it. I was thrilled when it released this week on DVD . With Michael Cain as the main character I wondered how this movie didn't do as well as it should have. Say anything about Michael Cain he always gives his A game in a film. The man could read Webster's dictionary and make it a good performance. Harry Brown is Daniel Barber's second feature, and he comes out of the gate swinging with this one. A film about revenge and growing old is what the film Harry Brown is all about, yet it plays on so many other levels too. After Harry's (Cain) best and only friend (David Bradley) is murdered Harry takes on the hoods that have taken over his neighborhood. I know "visions of Charles Bronson in " Death Wish " come to mind, but "Harry Brown is a different movie. This film is not heavy on dialogue. Cain's face portrays his character in this movie....
