2 Sentence Review: Harry Brown
In Harry Brown, Michael Caine goes all “ex-Royal Marine” on some raping, murdering, drug-addled teens who are apparently responsible for 90% of all the drug-related deaths, sexual assaults, and teen pregnancies in South London, as well as, you guessed it, the death of his best friend. Caine is the movie’s crutch, and it leans–heavily–on another of his sinisterly frugal performances, so if you want to see a master at work as he puts a rusty bayonet in a mugger’s sternum, then by all means, have at it.
