Set in modern day Britain, Harry Brown follows one man's journey through a chaotic world where teenage violence runs rampant. As a modest, law abiding citizen, Brown lives alone. His only companion is his best friend Leonard. When Leonard is killed, Brown reaches his breaking point.This was a surprisingly badass movie. The moral here is do not piss off old guys who have seen all sorts of stuff in their lifetimes and have nothing to lose. Michael Caine was very gritty and the certain scenes with the rising background score were intense. The only knock I can really make against it is that it takes place in England so there are certain political/procedural aspects that were definitely foreign and there were a couple of times where I had no clue what the punk ass kids were saying. Outside of that, it was a tense, short, enjoyable movie.
I would definitely recommend people checking this bad boy out. Not that it opened wide or anything, but you could definitely put this on your Netflix cue.
